GV Summer Camp is the perfect opportunity for boys and girls, aged 10 to 17, to practise English in an immersive environment, make friends from all over the world, participate in a variety of sports, excursions and activities, and most importantly, have fun! GV Summer Camp is available to individuals and groups, minimum one week. Arrival and Departure at the weekend.
Students may choose one of the following options:
GV Summer Camp is full of activities and experiences, 7 days a week, including SUNDAYS that promote healthy-living, active lifestyles, international friendships, and new experiences. And if you are looking for a camp where the fun never stops, then this is the right place to be.
GV Camp is like combining the best of home, holidays, clubs & hobbies all in one place… you never get bored creating fantastic memories and lots of great stories to tell your friends and family when you get home.
Suitable for all levels, the programme emphasizes comprehension and conversation, and often includes topic discussions, role playing, group projects and local visits – this pleasant teaching approach helps to maintain a high student interest and produces impressive results.
Practice doesn’t stop when class time is finished; English is the only official camp language, and everyone is expected to communicate in English throughout the entire day.
Every week students work on an interesting project and spend some time every day working on it. At the end they present their work in front of their peers. Here are some project ideas: Creating a Brochure, Creating a Perfect Town or City, Lip Dub of a Song, Presidential Elections from the Past, Typical Food, or a Magazine, Interviewing School Celebrities and many more.
Our GV Camp offers the perfect location for outdoor and indoor enthusiasts. In terms of grounds and facilities, one finds: two football pitches; a fully-equipped Theatre Hall; two gymnasiums equipped for indoor volleyball and basketball, yoga and fitness classes, etc; an outdoor green lawn area for water games and our popular evening chill-out time and a natural wooded area with beautiful views of Verdala Castle for outdoor games.
Our GV Camp is housed in a spacious and welcoming local secondary school in the luxurious area of Tal-Virtu’ in Rabat, which is ideally situated just 10 minutes from the old medieval capital city of Mdina, one of Malta’s natural treasures.
Our Camp is run on an exclusive basis, providing the precious privacy we need to run our programmes.
Spread over 58,000 square meters, GV Camp is located high up in a green area, surrounded by the peaceful countryside and villas, boasting panoramic views of the island of Malta. The surrounding area and facilities within the Camp are exceptional in terms of the activities it has to offer, allowing for an exciting and balanced schedule.
In order to ensure the safety and well-being of the Campers, all our activities are supported by our professional GV Team Leaders and our GV Team Coordinator, maintaining an enviable average rate of 1 GV Staff for every 15 Campers. Staff members are chosen through a strict selection process and undergo an intensive training week before the summer starts. The team includes basic first aiders. During every activity, the necessary safety measures are strictly implemented by our leaders and any outside providers we cooperate with.
