About

About the Course

Mornings are academic and afternoons creative or active: each child picks one elective from each half of the day, out of seventeen subjects in all. The morning choices are 21st Century Citizen, Intensive English, Amazing Science, Wacky Computing, Creative Writing and Story Making, French, 11+ Preparation, Maths, Computing and Performing Arts. The afternoon choices are Football Academy, Tennis Academy, Multi Activities, Horse Riding, Intensive English, 21st Century Etiquette and Maths. The teaching week is twenty lessons, classes hold no more than fifteen students, and the stated aim is to build academic knowledge together with independence, confidence, time management and collaboration.

What’s Included

The residential option covers tuition in the two chosen electives, full boarding in university accommodation with all meals, the social and excursion programme, and supervision by the camp team. A certificate is awarded on completion and the camp ends with a graduation ceremony. A non-residential day option is sold separately by the school and is not part of this card.

Accommodation

Children stay at Hughes Hall, Cambridge, in single en-suite rooms with full board. Each room has a single bed, a desk and a private shower with sink and WC, and windows overlooking the campus gardens. Communal kitchens are on each floor, laundry facilities are on site, rooms are cleaned weekly and WiFi reaches the whole campus. Teaching takes place on the same campus, so children do not travel between accommodation and classes.

Meal Plan

Full board is included for residential children: breakfast, lunch and dinner are served in the college dining hall for the whole stay. Breakfast is continental or full English, lunch is a hot meal in the dining hall with a packed lunch on full day excursion days, and dinner offers hot and cold options. Dietary requirements such as gluten free, vegetarian or halal are catered for when the school is told before arrival.

Activities & Excursions

Afternoons and evenings carry a full social programme: football and tennis academies, horse riding, multi activities, performing arts and arts and crafts, together with daily sporting, cultural and artistic activities. Full day trips go to places around the United Kingdom, among them the Harry Potter studios, Windsor Castle and Brighton. On campus there is table tennis in the Garden Room, board games and video sessions in the Common Room, a music room and a large terrace used for evening barbecues, and a swimming pool two minutes from the college gates.

Facilities

The camp uses Hughes Hall, a college of the University of Cambridge between the railway station and Market Square, with en-suite single rooms, a dining hall for full board and classrooms on the same campus. The college has a reception, common space, cinema room, games room, music room, library, launderette, green courtyards, a terrace and a variety of sporting courts.

Camp Experience

The camp brings together children from many countries for a stay that is meant to be as much about growing up as about lessons: the school describes independence, confidence and self-expression, social skills for meeting new people, and collaboration as the point of the programme. Teaching is by university teachers, and each child leaves with a certificate and a graduation ceremony.
