I am looking for reccomendations for summer holiday camps, I've just found out I have to work at the end of August now.
We have tried some before a few years ago, DD hated one as it was highly competitive. She is an introvert, she loves art, treasure hunts, swimming, non-team sports. The one she went to on day 1 they were assaigned to a team, she arrived to a hall of children sitting in groups, many already knowing each other, screeching their 'team chant' and very 'queen bee' type girls making up cheerleading dances with lad-ish boys kicking about balls and shouting. All week everything they did was for prizes or they were ranked. It was go go go and so pressured. Not saying any fault of the camp but just not for my DD who is far happier in a calmer environment where its about having fun and enjoying yourself rather than earning points. She attended an art and craft camp last year which she loved but its not running this year sadly.
I've looked at the three mentioned in the title. Adventure computer holidays is winning so far, but quite pricey. Friend has a child attending this week and said her first day today was wonderful, quite simple things like shelter building in the forest, go karts, art, archery, but catering for the loud and the quieter types.
Any opinions on the other two or more info on ACH?
thanks!
