More about this camp

BLISS English Summer Camp at Ruthin School takes place on the campus of Ruthin School, a traditional British boarding school in Denbighshire, north Wales. It is a residential camp for students aged 8 to 17. Programme and activities. The English Language Programme provides the academic core. Afternoon and evening activities and weekend excursions complete the timetable, covering sport, swimming, drama, arts, social events and trips to nearby destinations. The north Wales setting gives the excursion programme access to countryside and coast rather than to a large city. Accommodation and supervision. Students board on site at Ruthin School in single, twin or shared rooms. Everything happens on one campus, so there is no daily travel between accommodation and lessons, and the school's own boarding infrastructure is used rather than temporary arrangements. 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 other arrival dates are available before deciding. Prices. No price is currently published for this camp on CampsBooking, so a quote must be requested from the provider directly. Location and travel. Ruthin is a market town in the Vale of Clwyd, Denbighshire, in north Wales. Manchester and Liverpool are the nearest major airports, both around an hour and a half away by road. Transfer arrangements are not published and should be confirmed with the provider. Who the programme may suit. This camp may suit families who want a genuinely quiet, rural setting and a small-town environment rather than proximity to a city — it is the most remote of the provider's five British campuses, which some families will see as the point and others as a drawback. The minimum age of 8 makes it accessible to younger children. Families who want frequent city excursions should compare the provider's Loretto campus near Edinburgh or Prior's Field near London instead, since the programme content is the same across all five locations.
