Set within 400 acres of picturesque Surrey countryside, the Merrist Wood Campus Summer Camp offers students a unique blend of immersive English learning and outdoor adventure. Surrounded by ancient woodland, landscaped gardens, a working farm, and licensed zoo, the campus provides an inspiring natural environment just outside Guildford and within easy reach of London. Students live on campus in comfortable residential flats with full board dining, modern amenities, and dedicated pastoral support, creating a safe and welcoming international community.
Academically, students can choose between Immersive English – combined with unplugged afternoon elective options including Animal Health & Conservation, Football Coaching, Bushcraft, and Visual Arts – or the specialist Leadership & Sustainability course, focused on global challenges and future leadership skills. Learning is brought to life through topical weekly themes, project work, and interactive activities, while a vibrant programme of sports, creative workshops, and outdoor pursuits is complemented by up to three excursions per week to destinations such as London, Windsor, and Oxford.
Learning extends beyond the classroom with topical weekly themes that connect lessons to real-world topics. English language classes are taken alongside a range of afternoon electives, while learning through project work and interactive activities that make lessons engaging and practical.
