French Summer Camp: book now!

Summer is fast approaching and many parents are trying to coordinate their family schedule which can be a job in itself! With school trips, sports clubs, family holidays, fun with friends, there can be a lot to fit into the summer holidays. And what if you also have to fit in working?

Summer Camps are becoming a popular choice for school holidays. In many European countries, this has been the case for many years but other countries are just catching on to the trend! There are many types of Summer Camp out there with different areas of focus.

Alpine French School’s French Summer Camp is a language Summer Camp meaning that the main focus is on improving students’ French (or English as we also run English Summer Camps). However we appreciate that it is holidays, so our French Summer Camp is designed with fun in mind too! We have combined language study with a great programme of activities run in French in an amazing location. This is why we have a lot of returning clients who also bring friends with them and recommend us to others.
