Strange as it may seem, politeness is not universal. International standards of courtesy vary considerably. Total immersion courses in the UK, or another English speaking country help students overcome not only differences in language, but also cultural differences. (more…)

What an amazing couple of days at camp!!
Yesterday, we met some of the most weird and wonderful creatures you can ever see include a beautiful meerkat and a smelly skunk! We got to touch and stroke them, let them run across our legs and learn all about where they live and what they eat. It was really informative and even a bit creepy when we saw spiders and snakes!!

We’ve just hopped off the bus and are back at camp after our trip to the go-karting track today. The children showed true skill today combining speed and mental strength, flying around the circuit, burning some rubber!! Have a look at our pics on Flickr and see if you can see who is hiding under those helmets!
Tomorrow, the whole camp is off to visit the historical market town of Bury St Edmunds and then, on Thursday we’re off to London for some sightseeing and to see a West End show. We’ll be back blogging on Friday with more pics for you to follow us as we enjoy the rest of our week at XUK!

It’s the end of week 1! We can’t believe how quick times flies when we’re all having such fun!
The week went out in style with our very own XUK Oscars talent show with Mattias juggling and Jimena and Maria on the piano. The fancy dress was brilliant with the Tin Man, Gladiator and the Pirates of the Caribbean all making an appearance and having a boogie at our Saturday night disco. And we can’t forget our citizen of the week – well done Cesar!
So, as we wipe away the tears from our goodbyes with our week 1 campers, we’re on to week 2 in a flash with children arriving today, landing at airports, arriving on the Eurostar or being dropped off with their parents. Everyone’s arrived safe and sound and welcomed into camp life with our XUK initiative games.
This week’s activities include scuba diving, a trip to London to do some sight seeing and see a West End show and go karting, to name just a few. Watch this space for more XUK news!
