Course description

On their first day, students are tested and assigned to an English class based on their level. Students follow a carefully designed curriculum that stresses all English skills including speaking, reading, writing, grammar, listening and vocabulary.

Campers take part in instructional activities 5 days a week. Tamwood certified coaches and teachers lead students in such activities as mountain biking, field sports, arts and crafts, dancing, drama and leadership skills. Students also enjoy fun activities including swimming, tournaments, games...

In the evenings and Sundays, students in residence have lots of social activities and the chance to take part in some optional activities. This camp also includes lots of sightseeing. Each week campers will enjoy a full day excursion to places such as Stanley Park, Harbor Tower, Historic Gas Town, Granville Island, Capilano Suspension Bridge and various parks and beaches. All excursions are included in the price and campers are always supervised by Tamwood capable staff.

Camper is not provided with place in the residence and the accommodation should be arranged ahead by a parent or other camper representative.
