The camps are held in our own facilities or others rented for this purpose.

The facilities, as we say, are comfortable, accessible, equipped with air conditioning and can be visited with advanced notice.
The camp is designed for children between 4 and 11 years. Children from 3 years old are accepted if they will be 4 years old this year and have a certain level of autonomy. We also accept children over 11 years as pre-monitors/junior counselors. This is a special role that we give to the tweens and teens with a focus on leadership development, allowing them to form part of the camp in a meaningful and useful way.

It is a camp for bilingual children and also for those who aspire to be so. It is also for those who are being raised bilingually and those, who in both cases, need opportunities to take what they have learned during the school year and use it in ways that significantly help them increase their confidence in the use of English.
No, unless your child has not received English classes at school. Currently English is mandatory in the Spanish educational system, and for example, a 7 year old has received several years of English in school, so she/he should be sufficiently qualified to attend our camp.
Not at all, our native teachers / monitors, although they are professionally dedicated to teaching English, are competent Spanish speakers and if they see the need they would speak in Spanish with the children. They resort to Spanish only when necessary.
The staff that work at the camps are native speakers from an English-speaking country, GB, USA, Canada, etc.
All have their university studies in their countries of origin, postgraduate master and experience in this type of activities with children. Additionally, they are certified in first aid.
