About
About the Course
Maths in the morning, every weekday, in classes of about eight students. The camp takes all levels and works at the pace each child needs — closing gaps, catching up, or preparing for an exam. Lessons, workshops, excursions and the evening programme are linked by theme wherever possible, so that what is learned in class turns up again outside it.
What’s Included
The price covers tuition, course materials, accommodation in the camp house, full board and the whole afternoon and evening programme. The optional workshops, equipment and services listed under extras are booked separately.
Accommodation
Participants live in the camp house in Braunwald, supervised by the camp team around the clock. Rooms sleep four to six, with a shared or a private bathroom, and two-bed rooms with a private bathroom are also available. Parents who wish to come along can stay in a family room at the same house.
Meal Plan
Full board, three meals a day from the camp’s own kitchen team, with fruit and snacks between meals. Special diets — gluten-free, lactose-free, vegan, halal and others — are arranged in advance as a paid extra.
Activities & Excursions
Afternoons and evenings run on workshops and sport. Media workshops make a short film, a camp newspaper or photographs; art workshops cover theatre, graffiti, clay, mask-making, music, dance and cooking; sport covers a camp olympics, football, tennis, volleyball, hiking and swimming. Workshops are run in German, French or English depending on the staff. Excursions go out several times a week.
Facilities
The camp house provides WiFi, communal rooms for lessons and workshops, and a dining room where the whole camp eats together. Braunwald itself is car-free and reached by funicular, which is what makes the village usable as a camp: children move around it on foot. Every participant receives a certificate of attendance.
Camp Experience
A car-free village on a mountain terrace, a three-language team and children arriving from several countries. Arrival is on Sunday; departure is on Saturday, or on Sunday for children travelling with an airport transfer. Parents can come along and stay at the same house, joining the excursions and the evening programme with the children if they want to.
