More about this camp

BLISS English Summer Camp at Loretto School takes place on the campus of Loretto School, a traditional British boarding school in Musselburgh, just east of Edinburgh, Scotland. It is a residential camp for students aged 8 to 17. Programme and activities. The English Language Programme forms the academic core, supported by afternoon and evening activities and weekend excursions — sport, swimming, drama, arts, social events and trips to nearby destinations. The proximity to Edinburgh gives the excursion programme access to a capital city without the camp itself being city-based. Accommodation and supervision. Students board on site at Loretto School in single, twin or shared rooms. Having the accommodation, teaching and activities on one school campus means students are not travelling daily, and the range of room types offers some flexibility that most camps in this catalogue do not. Ages, dates and duration. The camp accepts students aged 8 to 17. One session is currently listed, starting in late July. Families should ask the provider whether additional arrival dates are available, since a single listed date may not reflect the full season. Prices. No price is currently published for this camp on CampsBooking, so families will need to request a quote directly from the provider. Location and travel. Musselburgh is a coastal town in East Lothian, immediately east of Edinburgh, with rail and bus connections into the city in well under half an hour. Edinburgh Airport is the arrival point. Transfer arrangements are not published and should be confirmed. Who the programme may suit. This camp may suit families who want a traditional boarding-school setting but also value being close to a major city — of the provider's five British locations, this is the one nearest a capital. The minimum age of 8 makes it accessible to younger children than most residential English camps. Families comparing the BLISS locations are choosing largely on setting rather than programme, since the English Language Programme and activity structure are shared across all five; Edinburgh proximity is this campus's distinguishing feature.
