Summer Camp Leysin, Switzerland

2nd July 2018

Bring on Summer Camp!

The first day of camp is finally here! The sun is shining bright and we are all so excited to get summer camp started for the year!

In the morning the Greens met with the Green counsellors to play Animal Safari in the Village Camps building and continued on through beautiful Leysin where they had time in the playground. The Yellow, Reds and Blue adventure campers spent their morning getting to know each other with some awesome Team Building games down by the Suchet forest.

The STEM Robotics campers had their first day delving into the world of Robotics, in teams they were challenged to build and program a simple wacky walking robot to give them an idea of the exciting things to come.

After lunch, the Greens headed down to the Suchet forest and tried their hand at Archery with our fantastic Archery specialist Naceur! In the Raging Red Race Off, the campers were taken to the beautiful Prafandaz view point and split off into groups to compete against each other in some fun team games before having a huge water fight. The Yellows were treated to a tour of the town and a fun afternoon in the sun with the Big Yellow activity, while the Blues had fun on a slip and slide baseball game in the ultimate Big Blue Activity.

In the evening it was time for our brave Greens and Yellows to save our camp in one of our favorite game "Terminator", it's up to the campers to shut down all the robots before everyone is captured! The Reds spent their evening session playing Survival in the Suchet forest, while the Blues were dodging and weaving in the gym during a friendly game of Dodgeball.

It was a fantastic first day at camp filled with sun, fun and plenty of smiles!
