Summer Camp England
International Night
International night is all about respect and inclusion. Every year, we have campers from all around the world here at Village Camps York, and International Night is a great chance for everyone to learn more about the other campers' nationalities. But before that, let's have a look at what happened during the rest of the day.
In the morning, each programme carried out their specific activities on and off-site. Horse riders and golfers left early in the morning, while the rest of campers stayed at Queen Ethelburga's College, getting ready for Excursion Wednesday. At 12 we enjoyed lunch all together.
After lunch it was time for the Yellow vs Counsellors football match! What a game! After a very tight score, the campers managed to win the game! Hooray! Reds and Blues could also enjoy Gaelic football and tie dye. Session D was fully dedicated to International Night preparation and two volunteers from each country worked really hard in the kitchen to represent their nation's favorite dish! Cooking for 100 people isn't easy, but they did an amazing job.
Finally, it was time for International Night. First, each team had the chance to try all the national dishes prepared earlier on and enjoyed some time dancing on stage with our counsellors. Then, each country was called to perform and had 3 minutes to display something that represented their nation. It was amazing to see so much variety; we had singing, theater, anthems, dancing... We can only thank everyone for their amazing work and for teaching us a little bit more about your great nations.
