Spanish and English course in summer camp

Top School’s international summer camp for juniors is the most fun way to enjoy the summer while learning Spanish or English. It’s a camp aimed at children aged between 8 and 15 years that takes place every summer in a resort located in Valverde, on the outskirts of Elche and just 15 minutes from Alicante.

Learning Spanish or English in a camp with other Spanish boys and girls? For 15 days foreign and Spanish students will share experiences in a camp where they can enjoy Spanish or English lessons combined with fun activities, a fantastic weather and typical Spanish food.

This year, as a novelty, the children will learn Spanish naturally through three different modalities of evening activities to choose from: multiadventure, robotics and dance.
