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!

Today, the whole camp visited the beautiful city of Cambridge where we saw several of the famous university colleges as well as hitting the shops and enjoying watching delicious fudge being made by hand.

Tomorrow, we have our spectacular London trip where we take in the sights, buy some souvenirs and watch a we st end show!  It’s an action packed day in the capital and everyone loves it!  For those back at camp, we’ve got taekwondo, quads, outward bounds and drama class so it will be action packed!   How can it be half way through week 4 already??  We guess time really does fly when you’re having fun!
