THEIR HOME AWAY FROM HOME OUR PROGRAMMES

We always keep in mind the time of year and the ages of our students...

we're a summer camp and the goal is to have fun!

All our sports, language and training programs have been carefully designed to stand out, for their content, objectives and exclusivity, for boarding or day students of different ages, abilities, interests and knowledge levels.

The summer language course content as well as the teaching methodology are conceived and designed aiming for the perfect balance between fun and rigor so that our campers make the most out of their English or Spanish course.

Sports are a great way for children to enjoy getting much

needed exercise, they can teach children valuable life skills

also needed to be successful in life.

The Sport Program has the intensity of an annual program

adapted to shorter weekly periods. Students will

concentrate on the same sport or one sport every week,

enabling them to make large strides in a short time, unlike

the case with a multi-sport program.

Students may choose one of the following sports during their

whole stay or one sport every week:

• Golf

• Horse Riding

• Football (by Real Madrid FC)

• Water Sports

• Tennis

• Paddle

• Dance – Fitness

Daily Sports (2:30 hrs: 10:00 – 12:30 )

Students will enroll in this course at different levels

according to their level and their age.

AM: SPORTS PROGRAMS

Every program, both academic and non-academic, is led by

native, bilingual, highly-qualified and professional teachers.

The students will enroll in any of these two courses at

different levels according to their knowledge of the

language and their age. The level of each student will be

determined by a language test on the first day.

1. LEARNING LANGUAGES THROUGH ACTION

With our methodology they will learn new contents and

skills that are essential to their personal and social

development, as they learn, absorb expressions and

vocabulary in another language. Providing a more natural

learning environment than the classroom, they will practice

another language within a context, in a fun and different

way.

2. INTENSIVE SPANISH LESSONS

We endeavor to completely immerse students in the

Spanish language, providing 3 hours a day classroom study

plus many opportunities outside of the classroom to

socialize and take part in activities, gaining confidence and

fluency as they interact with other language speakers.

The teaching system that we use is centered on a

communicative approach and includes diverse didactic

methods: grammar, speaking, listening, vocabulary

pronunciation, oral and written competence.
