Activities

Special focus

French · Languages

The programme for 10 to 16 year olds is built around a simple bilingual rhythm: every morning opens with fun, interactive language classes where each camper follows either French or English, so the day begins with real progress in a second language. Afternoons are then shaped by the theme each camper chooses for their week, either multi-sports for children who like to try a bit of everything or horse riding for those who would rather spend their time in the saddle. The two theme groups come back together regularly for joint activities such as swimming, cooking, art and DIY sessions, excursions and games around the campus, and these shared moments are deliberately designed so French speakers practise their English and English speakers practise their French. Because the camp runs on weekly registration with the option of full boarding, families can build a stay that fits them, and Ermitage describes the formula as a tailor-made camp rather than a fixed package. Everything takes place on the school's own campus in the park of Maisons-Laffitte, with the day running from 09:00 to 18:00 for campers who are not boarding.
