SPORTS CAMPS WITH ENGLISH IN BRITAIN

EXSPORTISE 2008

If you are 10 to 16 years old, you love sports and you would like to improve your English knowledge and sports skills with professional trainers in an exceptional company, Exsportise Junior Summer Camp is an ideal choice for you!

Exsportise understands how important are sports for a young person's development. Teamwork, leadership, motivation, discipline and above all making friends are the essence of doing sports.

 Participants learn English and then use it, among other situations, on the sports pitch. This gives an opportunity to use in action the knowledge acquired and motivates further learning. The international atmosphere of the camp also helps the students to brush up their English.

Exsportise obliges itself to professional and friendly attitude. From the moment of the first encounter until your return home there will always be somebody from the Exsportise team ready to help you.

The Exsportise coaches form a professional and devoted team that cares for safety during sports classes. It is made up mainly of professional sports coaches and language experts accredited by the British Council.

We are offering you a unique sports and language programme:

English & Sport

This offer is intended for students who wish to combine English learning with sports activities. Each day is divided between an interactive English course and the chosen sport.

The mornings are devoted to the sport chosen out of the following: football, basketball, dancing, hockey, horse riding, golf, rugby, swimming and tennis. Afternoons are devoted to English classes in a group of appropriate level.

Sports camps take place in three locations in England, with convenient connections to three London airports:  Heathrow, Gatwick and Stansted. Each school can boasts beautiful surroundings, convenient accommodation and high standard of the educational and sports facilities.

These are the locations of Exsportise:

Clayesmore School

This school has a hint of magic to it. It is located on 62 acres of Dorset landscape, with easy access to towns such as Bournemouth, Poole, Southampton, Bath and Bristol. The objects located on the school grounds include sports pitches and tennis courts, a golf course, an indoor swimming pool and horse stables.

Oundle School

This school has a tradition that dates back to 1556. The school grounds spread in the picturesque English landscape of the town Oundle, near Peterborough. The school's sports objects include a number of sports pitches and courses, an indoor swimming pool and a running track.

Seaford College

The school is situated on 400 acres of beautiful green in the shade of South Downs near Bringhton and other towns located on the south coast. The sports objects include sports pitches and courses, an indoor tennis complex, a golf course and an outdoor pool.

LEARNING English

A language and sports camp is a wonderful opportunity for members of many countries to meet young people from Britain, who also participate in the sports camps. The group size is between 4 and 14 students.
At the beginning of their stay the participants' knowledge of English is assessed in order to find an appropriate level for each student. The classes are conducted in such a way that allows the students to get to know each other better.

Hint: on arrival, you should have been learning English for at least a year.

English teachers
The teachers from Exsportise are enthusiastic, qualified and experienced. Before they start teaching at Exsportise, they undergo training on how to teach with non-standard methods.

TRIPS

If a participant stays in the camp over the weekend, he may enjoy trips (included in the price of the camp). A group is always supervised by at least one member of the Exsportise staff (a group is made up of 6-10 people) who is responsible for the group when they go out. The students are being prepared for the trips by learning vocabulary connected with the trip's destination. The camp's students can relax by going to an aqua park or an amusement park such as Longleat, Thorpe Park or the Chessington World of Adventure.
Members of the camp have an opportunity to see some sights of the English heritage, famous landscapes and places popular with tourists such as London, Bath, Brighton, Bournemouth or Cambridge.

in the evening...

After a whole day of physical and mental activity there comes the time of the deserved evening rest! Members of the sports and English camp can take part in barbecues, Friday discos or quiz nights. If you wish simply to read a book, socialise with friends, watch a film on TV or a DVD - no problem. If the weather allows, highland games, crazy Olympic Games and night races with the coaches are organized.

Younger students stay on the camp's grounds all the time (they do not go out unattended), older students, on the other hand, may go out to the cinema or go bowling.
