Academic/Languages/Science & Technology/Life Skills Camps


Multi- Activity Camps - a combination of activities rather than a specialist camp. Typically multi-activity programmes involve between 4-6 activity sessions per day of sports, adventure, creative & performing arts activities etc - each session lasting 1-1.5 hrs.


Single Sport Camps - Sports camps in this section are usually single activity sports camps led by qualified Instructors/Coaches/Associations, e.g. soccer ,rugby, tennis camps, pony camps etc.


The Outdoor Adventure Camps are mostly run by specialist outdoor centres providing a range of activities such as kayaking, orienteering, rock climbing etc.



Performance & Creative Arts Camps - The main focus of these camps is either Performance Arts, (Drama, Singing, Dancing, Music) or Creative Arts (incl Art, Crafts and Cookery)or possibly a combination of all of these - they do not usually include sporting activities.



Academic - We've loosely grouped camps in the following areas under the term Academic. - Languages, Science, Computers & Technology, Chess, The camps may include other activities, e.g. Games/Activities through Irish, however the main focus is to learn/experience the language or specific activity e.g. science etc.
