Summer Camp England

12th July 2019

Happy endings

Yesterday was the last day of session 1. It was a bittersweet ending to a fantastic two weeks here at camp. We lived some very emotional moments, especially in the evening, when the campers' departures began.

In the morning, our campers enjoyed their last programme-specific activities, like the special English Quizz against management and a Slip and Slide in Adventure. Before lunch, they spent some time packing and we then enjoyed the Performing Arts show at the theater. What a brilliant show, Whimsville proved to be a magical place in which everything is possible and our Performing Arts students displayed their magnificent dancing, singing and acting skills.

In the afternoon, we had our last Secret Friends and Kangaroo Court, this time courtesy of the Blues. Lots of emotional messages and a hilarious performance! Afterwards, counsellours and campers enjoyed an exciting football match and some free time out in the Sun. It was pretty close, but after a long session of penalties, the counsellors won the match. Congratulations!

After a barbecue style dinner, it was time for everyone to get dressed and ready for Awards Night! Awards Night is one of our all-camp evening programmes, in which counsellors and programme coordinators give awards and special prizes to campers for their skills, efforts and evolution during camp. We also displayed some beautiful slideshows for each programme and color group, in which we were able to see the highlights of camp. The finishing touch to a perfect evening was a fun dance session at the disco!

Endings are always sad, and lots of tears were shed. But the memories built during these last weeks will always remain, and so will the friendships made at camp. We hope to see many of our campers again, we're amazed to see how much they've grown skill and personal-wise. We wish everyone a safe trip hope and a fantastic Summer!
