Life skills and expert guidance
Learning through doing
Our life skills are chosen to broaden children's interests and offer different ways to learn, solve problems and work together.
Sessions are guided by qualified professionals with experience in their field and a love of teaching.
Explore the life skills
A day of learning by doing
Hands-on life skills, shared challenges and breaks between sessions. Across the week, children have opportunities to return to skills and build on what they have already tried.
See it explained
A professional introduces the skill, demonstrates the task and gives children a clear starting point. Questions are encouraged.
Have a go yourself
Children cook, build, practise a technique or work through a challenge. The professionals adapt the support and difficulty to the group.
Try it again. Build on it.
Further practice and fresh challenges help children apply what they have learned, ask another question and recognise their progress.
Session order and activities vary by camp and group.

Parents' experiences
What families have shared
I have a 9 year son who has declared this "the best camp ever" and trust me he has gone to a lot of camps over the last few years! Well done for putting together such engaging activities! When I told him there will be a summer camp I got a big YAY!
Pendo Chambakare
My 10 year old son loved the camp! He was so inspired by the camp he cooked us dinner at home after camp from scratch. He loved all elements of the camp. Would definitely recommend it. Will Defo do it again. Thanks.
