Multi-activity Program
- Age of students – 7-18 years;
- The language of instruction is English.
The Multi-Activity Program is an original summer author's program. It is designed for:
- Children and adolescents from 8 to 17 years old who want to spend their holidays actively,
- For those who have not yet decided on a hobby and want to try themselves in different directions,
- Those who love movement, sports, creativity and adventure,
- Future polyglots who want to improve their English in a natural environment.
It differs from other formats of summer camps in that the participants are not connected by one direction - they try themselves in various sports, art and team games. The program includes morning English classes and afternoon activities that can be changed every week to choose what is really interesting. This approach will help a child or teenager find a new hobby, meet peers from around the world, and develop useful skills in various fields.
The program provides English classes in a well-thought-out and modern course aimed at building self-confidence, developing group work skills and improving written and spoken English skills. It includes two main components:
- English language
Every day, participants study English in an interactive and playful way, discussing films, books and games, take part in quests and role-playing games, create and present their own projects, working in a team and improving communication skills in informal communication.
Workload – 15 hours per week; Children are engaged in groups with the same level of preparation, numbering 5-10 people.
- Sports and creativity
In the afternoon, on weekends, students can play sports, devote themselves to creativity - for example, drawing, cooking, dancing, take part in a theatrical performance; engage in programming, robotics, conduct a scientific experiment under the guidance of an attentive and experienced teacher and mentor; Finally, go in search of adventure on the climbing wall, in the shooting range, go horseback riding or sports games. This model has a number of advantages:
- A variety of activities - no one will get bored, because every day you can try something new.
- Language practice in a natural environment – children don't just learn English, they use it during games, communication and creative projects, improving their skills in a relaxed and informal environment.
- New friends from all over the world, because the camp welcomes participants from different countries, which makes the summer truly international.
- Developing confidence and independence – children learn to work in a team, overcome obstacles and discover new facets of their talent.

The child's parents can book any two-week interval, as well as two or more (without leaving the camp).
