Days at the camp will be primarily focused on language skills through our weekly themes. We will work on four themes, one per week for the first four weeks, then repeat those themes for the last four weeks of camp. The theme will be the inspiration for the adventure that the campers will embark on at the start of the week, leading up to the big game at the end of the week.
This years’ themes will be:
- Mysteries of Paris
- French Investors and Scientists
- Mysteries of the Sea
- French Heroes in Films and Fairy Tales
