In today's digital era, the magnetic pull of screens is hard to ignore. At Educational Adventures, as experienced educators, we value the profound impact that real-world experiences can have on young people. Stepping back from technology to engage with the natural world at our summer camps in the picturesque British countryside can be incredibly beneficial for teenagers and have lasting, positive impacts on their lives.
Research has consistently highlighted the drawbacks of excessive screen time, including its effects on physical health, social skills and attention spans. However, we understand that the task of keeping children entertained and away from their screens during the long summer period is particularly challenging; at Educational Adventures, we offer solutions to summer boredom by providing enriching residential summer camp experiences, immersing students in nature and hands-on learning, social and physical activities.

Outdoor Adventures
Our facilities, which include purpose-built sites and charming converted country houses, serve as the perfect backdrop for a range of activities such as kayaking, archery, raft-building and climbing. More than just physical skills, these activities are designed to foster self-discovery, independence and confidence within a safe and supportive environment.
In addition to outdoor adventures, our camps can also focus on English language skills through practical, engaging lessons, if parents wish to have this as part of their child’s summer camp experience. These aren't typical classroom lectures; they're integrated with outdoor activities, making language learning a dynamic part of the overall experience. This combination of practical language learning with outdoor and social activities makes these English language camps a fantastic all-round experience for young people. The opportunity to visit culturally significant English towns and cities during the week only adds to the experience.
For parents exploring summer camp options, it's important to consider the broader benefits these experiences offer. Beyond the short term enjoyment of a week with like-minded young people from across the world, they encourage children to step out of their comfort zones, forge new and lasting friendships, and develop adaptability and teamwork skills.
The serene, tech-free setting of our camps encourages children to connect with their peers and nature, fostering a genuine appreciation for the environment and the importance of community. These experiences are more than just a break from screens—they're a gateway to a world of adventure and lifelong learning.
