OUR CAMP STORY:
- We organize international camps for children hailing from diverse corners of the world, fostering learning, creativity, and shared joy amidst the beauty of nature. We follow a balanced Waldorf approach, creating a multicultural environment where children can enjoy and learn together.
- In our tenth year of organising summer camps, we are thrilled that this year's camp will take place in Latvia, marking a continued collaboration with Adazi Free Waldorf School. Our previous camps have spanned across Latvia, China, Lithuania, Sweden, and Austria, and we're eager to make this year's experience even more special.
- Our camp is for everyone worldwide, and we mainly speak English. If needed, we translate things into Latvian, Chinese, Russian, German, and more, making sure everyone feels included and comfortable.
- Our camp will welcome approximately 80 children ranging in age from 8 to 16 years old.
- The entire camp community is organized into age-specific groups, with approximately 10-15 kids in each group.
-
An experienced Waldorf teacher and a dedicated counsellor oversee each group. A teacher is someone who currently works in a Waldorf school or has experience working in one previously. A counsellor may be a Waldorf student, graduate, or enthusiast. Additionally, younger groups are assisted by a volunteer.
