SUMMER CAMP 2018 IN ENGLAND AT QUEEN ETHELBURGA’S COLLEGE, YORK

For 2018, too, we are happy to offer a study trip to England from 1 to 15 July, departing from Rome. We had no hesitation in reconfirming the 2017 campus, given the enthusiasm and success among the young people who took part. Junior Summer Camp 2018 at Queen Ethelburga’s College in York (Yorkshire), for boys and girls aged 11 to 17.

York is an extraordinary city in northern England. Founded by the Romans and later conquered by the Vikings, in the industrial era it based its economy not on foundries or textiles but on chocolate. Fascinating, lively, sunny yet mysterious, York is surrounded by wonderful medieval walls, boasts the largest Gothic cathedral in Northern Europe and houses the largest railway museum in the world. QUEEN ETHELBURGA’S is considered one of the most sought-after and exclusive English colleges, distinguished by the very high standard of its facilities, described as “unique in all of Europe”. The philosophy of this boarding school is that, to achieve excellent academic results, students must live and spend their time in an equally excellent environment — calm, organised and comfortable. The classic red-brick Georgian buildings, set in a splendid park, house state-of-the-art classrooms, computer rooms, an auditorium and common rooms; outdoor football, tennis and cricket pitches, a multi-purpose indoor gym and a semi-Olympic pool reflect the strong value placed on sport. The whole complex is fenced, guarded by security staff and monitored by CCTV.
