Holidays in Cheltenham
- fully immerse themselves in English study and practice
- meet peers from all over the world and create lifelong connections
- have (at least) 5 excursions, as well as complete 2 projects that will improve their chances to get to a top University in the future
a TOP UK private Boarding School
Campers will live in a prestigious private school in Cheltenham, learn English with teachers from different corners of the world, but also complete project work, the results of which can be added to their CVs or portfolios.
ENGLISH LESSONS
- 1,5 hours a day classical Elglish lessons
- 1 hour a day of speaking clubs on the most popular and interesting topics
- 2,5 hours a day campers work on their projects (also in English)
- Up to 12 children in a group, formed according to their age and English level
English programme consists of 2 parts. Firstly, reinforce the basics: focus on grammar and vocabulary enrichment. Secondly: practice, as practice makes perfect. Campers will apply their knowledge in real-life projects, and master the speaking element during Speaking clubs.
On top of that, everyday communication, excursions and evening events are also conducted in English. We’ve already told you that this is a full immersion package!
Every element of our programme includes multicultural communication and full immersion into English speaking community. Every activity aims at:
- pronunciation improvement
- overcoming the language barrier
- spoken English improvement
- cultural enrichment
- discovering how people live and study abroad
- developing planning and managing skills
PROJECTS
Each week is devoted to project work: children choose 1 project out of three, and stick with it for the entire 2 week.
The goal is to finalise a project that you can add to your portfolio/CV, that will add value and open up opportunities, when it’ll come to your future.
Вusiness and marketing: create, plan and run a real event. Art and creativity: re-making famous masterpieces. Unilab: a boot camp on how to get to the best university or course for you.

EXCURSION TO COTSWOLDS
We will visit Cotswolds National Landscape, which has preserved its authenticity since 1380. We will walk along picturesque little streets and look at peculiar local houses, built long ago with a specific purpose (storing wool!), as that used to be a main business direction in the old times.
Cotswolds excursion has 2 options to choose from: a hike and a cycle tour. To get the most of the time among beautiful landscapes, we'll get to the location by bus and spend half of the day there.
