Summer Camp

2013

Our Rationale By spending three weeks at the Hellenic-American Educational

Foundation’s English Summer Camp, the day campers will have

the opportunity to experience fun and exciting activities, while

being immersed in the English language and culture. The camp

is structured to provide diverse learning opportunities in an

environment set up to uncover their strengths and interests. In

this setting, children work at their own pace, and direct their

energies wherever they like. Each session or series of sessions

is focused on giving children a sense of accomplishment and

personal achievement. There is no success or failure; there is

only a lot of enthusiasm and positive energy.

Camp Staff The English Summer Camp Staff is comprised

by young, energetic and enthusiastic employees

of the Hellenic-American Educational foundation

who have an excellent command of the English

language.

Camp Schedule & Activities The English Summer Camp combines a variety of activities that appeal to everyone’s interests. Camp

begins each morning at 8:45 with an assembly. Students are then separated into their respective

groups and rotate amongst the various activities.

Every group will spend an hour a day learning about and playing an American sport. They will also enjoy

an hour in the swimming pool where they will be engaged in various activities and games. In addition,

the Camp offers, on a daily basis, an hour of Art and Music. Moreover, each day includes three D.Y.T

Sessions (Discover your Talents) where the children will experience different activities tailored to pro-

mote their talents and meet their needs.

Attica Park Visit

Taking a field trip to the Attica Park is an exciting way for campers

to learn about nature and its inhabitants. The Attica Park provides

shelter for hundreds of different animal species that children can

see and learn about. Our little campers are encouraged to adopt a

caring and respectful attitude towards animals.

During their three-week experience, children over 8 years old will have the opportunity

to discover the true meaning of outdoor camping! Our little adventurers will pitch their

tents, enjoy playing games around the premises and watch a movie under the stars.

These three nights will be unforgettable!

Camp-out Nights

Surprise for 2013! Campers will have the chance to do three D.Y.T sessions in the

new labs of the school. The children will work in groups on the

interactive tables and will be encouraged to interact with digital

objects in activities such as puzzles, tangrams etc. Older chil-

dren will use the new Web TV for Movie Making.

Camp-out Nights Frequently Asked Questions Who is the English Summer Camp suitable for?

Students aged 6-12 (end of Kindergarten to Grade 6) can attend the English Summer Camp. Specific

prior knowledge of the English language is not required.

How is the English Summer Camp different from school?

In the English Summer Camp students will use the English language as a means to enjoy activities de-

signed to allow them to explore different subject areas and disciplines. These activities will not involve

traditional instruction and will engage students in more physical and creative activities, both inside and

outside the classroom.

What will my child have achieved by the end of the English Summer Camp?

Your child will have engaged in a variety of activities in an English-speaking environment. All campers will

have the opportunity to explore their skills and talents while having fun. Finally, they will have become

more receptive to the English language.

Can my child attend the English Summer Camp for less than 3 weeks?

Although it is possible to attend the English Summer Camp for only two weeks, we strongly advise you

not to miss out on the fun. Go for the full three-week experience to benefit the most!
