After a fond farewell to our week 4 campers after a week of such fun, we have now welcomed in our newcomers with open arms to our first ever fifth week of camp!  Everyone has arrived safe and sound at camp, some driving all the way from Belgium to be at XUK!

It’s our first ever fifth week of camp and we are so excited.  We’ve got a trip to laser combat to come, we are looking forward to returning to the USA theme park and we are off to Bury St Edmunds again shopping and sightseeing.  We’ve got teens camping out under canvas in our t-bell village up on the bbq field and more children studying english at our classes this week.

Hot off the press: we’ve just finalising our camp video for this year thanks to Antonio.  We’ll load it on to the website as soon as it’s ready so you can see just what XUK has to offer and you may see some familiar faces if you have been to camp before!

Shiver me timbers, week 3 is already over!
