Course Description
Unique Venue for Children to Grow to Be Self Confident, Independent and Skillful individuals.
Whether you are speaking a new language, horseback riding, playing golf or learning ballet (to name a few), each student will be challenged to go beyond what they ever could have imagined. The school aims to offer junior young learners, ages 6-13, a foundation to forge friendships and enjoy their summers to the fullest. The camp runs from July to August with a minimum stay of two weeks. The camp combines the characteristics of a traditional Swiss boarding school with one of the most advanced learning environments and a commitment to innovate in order to define a new era of education. The camp pioneered the trademarked Individual Development Programme, IDP - a holistic view of the world, inside and outside the classroom that prepares students for university and beyond. Home to students from 50 different nationalities, an average class size of 8 students per class and a teacher to student ratio of 1:2, our Swiss private school is in a unique position to deliver on its mission.
Location
The campus is home to art-nouveau-period villas set in 100’000 m2 of private parkland in St Gallen, surrounded by century-old nut-trees and the carefully landscaped gardens that create the canvas for a unique and tranquil learning environment.

Activities
This summer, we will have horseback riding, tennis, soccer, hiking and more. Specific details and schedules will be available closer to summer. We know that summer camp is action packed, but we want to ensure you enjoy your leisure time too. After a day of hiking, swimming or another activity of your choosing, we like to come home and make camp fires with smores!
Activities
Accommodations
Student residences are organized into separate accommodation for boys and girls. In these boarding houses, students of the same age-group live and study together, share community spaces and join organized free-time activities.
Girls’ and boys’ residences are characterized by bright colors, cherry hard wood floors and simple but yet elegant furniture, combined with modern and tasteful en-suite marble bathrooms.
Meals
The kitchen team at our Swiss boarding school has a firm commitment to cooking without artificial colors, artificial taste intensifiers or thickening agents such as wheat flour, wherever possible. The culinary philosophy of the school kitchen team is based on a profound commitment to quality; producing carefully planned and balanced meals to support students’ demanding daily learning and activity schedules.
