More about this camp

SKOLA Gloucester Gate is an English day school for young children aged 5 to 9, beside Regent's Park in London. It is designed as a gentle first introduction to English for the youngest learners. This is a day camp, not a residential programme. No accommodation is provided: families arrange their own stay. Families therefore need to be in London for the duration, and a young child attends during the day and returns to the family each evening. This makes it a very different proposition from the residential camps in this catalogue. Programme and activities. The programme is pitched specifically at young children, easing them into English in a park-side setting. The focus is age-appropriate for 5 to 9-year-olds rather than a general course stretched to fit them. Ages and dates. The camp accepts children aged 5 to 9 — one of the youngest bands in the catalogue. A large number of arrival dates is listed from early July, giving strong flexibility. Parents should confirm daily start and finish times and any wraparound care. Location and travel. Gloucester Gate is beside Regent's Park, in central London, on the underground network. Because this is a day camp, families need to be within daily travelling distance; no transfers are published. Who the programme may suit. This camp may suit families already in or staying in London who want a gentle, structured English introduction for a young child aged 5 to 9, attending during the day. It does not suit families wanting to send a young child on a residential programme, since there is no accommodation. SKOLA also runs a Regent's Park day camp for ages 10 to 17 and a residential option at Nutford House for teenagers, so families with an older child should look at those.
