LIFE AT CAMP

Eating
We promote healthy eating and choice. Breakfast options include continental and traditional cooked. Lunch and dinner always include:

• A wholesome main meal
• A vegetarian main meal option
• Salad/pasta bar
• Tasty dessert
• Fresh fruit

Our BBQs have become famous from Scotland to Spain, so we now have two per week!

Sleeping
Every child coming to camp can choose with whom they’d like to share a dormitory. Many of our children at camp come alone, so we make a special effort to make sure we put each individual in a friendly and fun dorm with similar aged children.

As you’d imagine, dorms come in all shapes and sizes. Dorms are divided by age and gender, so boys and girls only share with others in the same age group.

Each dorm is wonderfully cosy and has a ‘pastoral leader’ who every child can turn to for support or advice at any stage of camp.

Staying in Touch
Children at camp always have an opportunity to call home each week. We also encourage them to send postcards and letters. If you’d like to contact your children, we have a camp phone line and email address too.

Many children and teens now carry mobile phones. To ensure every ‘camper’ is getting the most out of XUK we have some simple rules. All juniors and intermediate phones will be kept in the office. This ensures they are safe and not being misused. Teens may keep their phones but only use them out of activities and meal times.

Pocket Money
We run an XUK bank which will look after your child’s pocket money. On a daily basis money can be signed in and out to spend at our tuck shop, arcades or on trips! All transactions are monitored.

Citizen of the Week
Every week, our staff vote for the camper who embodies everything we love about XUK. The ‘Citizen of the Week’ will be helpful, fun, caring and enthusiastic all week long. And you’ll love it if your child wins because we’ll invite them back to camp next year for one week free of charge!
