Holiday Camps

Active fun as well as language and digital skills courses during the holiday camps at the Lyceum Alpinum Zuoz in Switzerland

Important note: Summer Camps 1 and 2 are fully booked. There is a waiting list. If you are interested, please send us an email to camps@lyceum-alpinum.ch.

If you would like to make good use of your holidays to learn a new language or expand your programming skills and at the same time spend a fantastic time in the beautiful Engadine in the Swiss Alps, then this is the place for you. In summer, when the raging streams invite you to go rafting and exciting outdoor activities in nature are the order of the day, our international holiday camps are packed with fun and action.

Results

During our holiday camps, students achieve demonstrably good results – and not without good reason. The first-class lessons in the morning are complemented by the use of the language in daily interactions, especially during the afternoon activities and the recreational activities in the evening. For more than 25 years, the Lyceum Alpinum programmes have offered the perfect balance of learning and activity. After all, only those with a clear head can discover new things.

Cultural exchange

Young people from all over the world take part in our holiday camps in Switzerland. Activities are conducted in small groups to help participants get to know each other quickly. Shared experiences, which at times draw participants out of their comfort zone, not only help them to stretch themselves, but also to forge strong friendships that may last a lifetime.

Sports, games & fun

During our camps, we offer a variety of activities, including activities that may not be available everywhere. Every camp participant has the opportunity to choose between different programmes depending on their personal interests. In the mornings, there are various language or digital skills courses to choose from, and in the afternoons there is a choice between a varied sports programme, a film acting course, a golf programme or intensive football training. At the weekends, exciting outdoor experiences such as river rafting or bathing in a lake are on offer.

Summer Camp

Age group: 10 - 16 years

Our Summer Camp here is a holiday camp that combines language learning or digital skills lessons and various sports, outdoor and drama activities.

Summer, sun, mountains and lots of activity – the definition of an exciting summer. In the beautiful alpine valley of the Engadine, participants learn German, English or French. They experience lots of summer activities in breathtaking nature, have lots of fun and form friendships with people from all over the world.

Language and Digital Skills courses

In the mornings, classes are held in German, English or French. Those who are interested in digital skills instead of language can take a workshop in AI, programming or robotics.

Sports and outdoor activities

In summer, the Engadine valley is the perfect setting for numerous sports and outdoor activities. Tennis, golf, team sports (such as volleyball or football), hiking or yoga – all this and much more is on offer here in Zuoz at the Lyceum Alpinum, where the clean, fresh air also does its part to clear your head.

Theatre activities

Without question, we have a very special summer programme. Gian Franco Tordi, our man in Hollywood, will introduce our participants to the world of film and delve into the following topics: performing in front of the camera, practising public speaking, gaining first experiences with green screen, directing, camera angles, scriptwriting and show business.

What made you decide to participate in the Summer Camp?

Since my parents couldn’t spend the holidays with me this summer due to work-related reasons, I was looking for an alternative. I wanted to spend a lot of time in nature, do sports and meet new people. Through the Summer Camp, I discovered my passion for tennis and made many friends!

Junior Day Camp

Age group: 6 – 9 years

Junior Day Camp is a special holiday camp for children between 6 and 9 years of age. Without overnight stays - but with a pick-up service.

In the Junior Day Camp, the boys and girls attend an educational English, French or German course from Monday to Friday in the morning and enjoy an action-packed sports and games programme in the afternoon. The children are picked up in the morning by the school bus and brought back in the early evening.

The programme

Language courses (level A0, A1, A2 and B1) take place in the morning from 08:30 – 11:45 a.m. In the afternoons from 12:45 – 16:00, we organize a range of activities such as sports, excursions and arts and crafts. Lunch is served at the school. We cook with regional, fresh ingredients and offer a healthy and delicious assortment for all taste buds – including vegetarian. The Junior Day Camp is a day camp only – no overnight stays are included. The supervision time is from 08:30 – 16:00. A pick-up service ensures that your child is safely brought to and from the camp. There are four camps of five days each from Monday to Friday.

How did your kids like Junior Day Camp?

Actually, we were only registered for one week at the camp, but the girls had so much fun that we just decided to stay even longer. The bus service is very convenient, and because the day at the Lyceum Alpinum ends at 4 p.m., the girls still had enough time and energy for other activities in the late afternoon such as horseback riding. Both girls enjoyed the camp very much.
