English or Spanish classes are integrated throughout the camp, reinforcing daily lessons that focus on the four key language skills: listening, writing, reading and speaking.
This year, we have elevated the experience with an array of topquality sports such as golf, horse-riding, racket sports and kayaking, along with traditional activities and cooperative games, all held between our school and an excellent club venue.
Campers will engage creatively, combining sports, cooperative games, language lessons and science projects while using new technologies both inside and outside the classroom. This approach fosters teamwork, cooperation and social skills, and enhances selfconfidence and autonomy.
The main objective of the camp is to make language immersion fun and natural. Our mission is to promote language acquisition through innovative activities that enhance personal communication skills. Students learn to use a foreign language as a tool to achieve various goals, allowing them to realise the true value of their learning.

Join us for an unforgettable two-week intensive camp where children aged 8 to 14 dive into the exciting world of musical theatre.

Whether your child is an experienced performer or simply passionate about theatre, this camp will be the perfect place for them to shine.
Students will master new techniques, guided by professionals in the field, and their journey will culminate in a professionally recorded music video, complete with voice and video production. This video will serve as a cherished memory for participants and their families, showcasing their hard work and talent.
This exclusive collaboration between The Glee Club Academy and King’s College offers a unique opportunity for students to develop their artistic and personal skills.

ENGLISH FOR FUN: NANO CAMP
The English for Fun camp is specially designed for three to five-year-olds who are fully immersed in the English language through engaging lessons that nurture their personal and social growth. We focus on topics that are crucial for successful coexistence now and in the future.
English language learning takes place in stimulating environments through a playful and educational programme in which music and psychomotor skills are the main pillars.
Our friendly, experienced staff continually work to ensure the wellbeing and safety of the children; each class is taught by a teacher and supported by a monitor.
ENGLISH CLASSES
We work to create a pleasant and stimulating environment with a creative methodology based on the use of practical teaching methods such as storytelling, crafts, music and dance as mechanisms for acquiring language without even realising it. We rely on highly skilled and experienced teachers who oversee the building of a practise- and interaction-based learning environment.
ACTIVITIES
We have created an engaging, hands-on programme in which children can develop their creative, motor and cognitive skills in a fun atmosphere while being constantly exposed to the English language. To enhance their learning experience, campers will also embark on weekly excursions that complement the programme and provide real-world applications of their skills.
