English Class Camps in Switzerland

We create… speakers, team players, storytellers, creatives, dreamers, entrepreneurs, leaders.

Language-trip feeling without going abroad: multi-day class camps on which your class is immersed in an English-speaking world around the clock.

Why classes love this camp

A fully supervised programme

Our trainers design and run the entire programme – your teachers keep the supervision role but are freed from the planning and delivery.

More than 25 hours of English

Over 25 hours of English across the camp – more active speaking time than on a classic language trip abroad.

Project-based learning

Sketches, short films and challenges instead of worksheets: English is used, not crammed.

Native-speaker trainers

Our team comes from the UK, US, Ireland and Canada, among others – authentic English from the very first minute.

Everything from a single source

We coordinate accommodation, meals, programme and trainers – you only organise the travel.

Free cancellation up to 90 days

Cancel free of charge up to 90 days before departure and adjust the group size at any time – planning security for your school.

An experience, not a lesson

A week that feels like an adventure – shared experiences the class remembers long after the vocabulary has sunk in.

Four academies to choose from

Every class trip follows one of four themed tracks – and not every group has to do the same one: depending on how many trainers are on site, each workshop group can pick its own academy. Every track is adapted to the age and language level of your class.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who supervises the students?

Our trainers run the English programme, while supervision duty stays with the accompanying teachers – tried, tested and clearly arranged.

What's on in the afternoons and evenings?

Afternoons bring activities like Egginering, a Scavenger Hunt, Photo Safari, the LevelUp Olympics or Humans of LevelUp, all in English and full of team spirit. Evenings continue with a Fashion Show, Disco, Movie Night, the Great Sing-Off or a Camp Fire.

Will the date fit our school year?

We plan around the semester and holiday times of the cantons and arrange the date individually with you.

What if the group size changes?

No problem – participant numbers can be adjusted, and you can cancel free of charge up to 90 days before departure.

Which levels is the camp suitable for?

All of them – the trainers differentiate within the programme so that weaker and stronger students alike benefit.

Is the camp available in other languages?

Yes – after a successful premiere we now also run the week entirely in Spanish: the same concept, with a native-speaker trainer team. Just send us a no-obligation enquiry.

What happens if we need to cancel?

You can cancel free of charge up to 90 days before departure; a tiered refund applies after that. A reduction in the number of participants of less than 10% of the number registered at the time of booking is also possible free of charge up to 30 days before the start of the event. If a child falls ill at short notice, travel cancellation insurance covers the cost – we recommend adding it when you book.
