Adventure, marshmallows and the magic of L & E summer camp …

The essence of a Learn & Experience adventure is hard to capture on paper. It is so many things to so many different children. There’s no single way to pin it down. It’s the laugh between new friends, sharing a joke. It’s the quiet linking of arms as life-long friendships are forged. It’s the look of pride beaming from the face of someone who’s met a challenge head-on and triumphed. It’s the sound of easy, satisfied silence, returning tired-out from a day of physical activity. It’s the sound of fast chatter on the phone as someone can’t wait to tell home what they’ve achieved. It’s the exhilarated shouts after abseiling down a cliff. It’s the splash in the pool. It’s the sound of voices, creating, working towards a goal together. It’s the wood-smoke smell of the campfire and of slowly-toasting marshmallows, after another jam-packed day.

Learn & Experience offers award-winning day and residential camps for boys and girls aged 8-14. Our summer camps enable children to learn a huge array of exciting new skills with expert tuition, making friendships that span the globe along the way. With us, children develop their independence and their confidence. Again and again, in their own words, they tell us they’ve had the time of their lives.
