Le Régent International School - Summer Camps

Overview

They may have an academic slant, but Régent Camps are not your usual summer school. Rather, we want to give students the chance to consolidate their learning in a creative and empowering way. Instead of focusing on revision and test preparation, we take a different path. By using a project-based pedagogical approach, the students have ownership of their learning, seeing an academic project through from start to finish.

From homemade toothpaste to poetry writing, podcasts and stop-motion video projects, the students who participate in Régent Camps New Heights work on a specific project during their stay while also getting to practise crucial skills in their chosen subject of English, French or Maths (or a combination of two). In the end, they have something tangible to be proud of and to present at the end-of-camp ceremony. This is a  summer school that adds something different to the school year, rather than just prolonging it.

BOARDING HOUSE
All students live together in a boarding house– girls and boys in separate buildings. The teachers live on the same floor as the students to ensure their well-being, safety and a family atmosphere. All teachers and students eat together at set times. This is how we create a feeling of community and security.
Room requests can be made when registering for the camp and we will do our best to make it happen.
