English & Volleyball: Charterhouse School and Winchester College

STRONGER TOGETHER

We are committed to empowering girls in sport by providing them with the resources, knowledge and inspiration they need to excel both on and off the pitch. Every year, our camps bring girls from all over the world together to build their self-confidence, forge lasting relationships and experience the power of community. The friendships they form here aren’t just fun – they shape who they are. Because when girls support one another, they become stronger, play better and go further.
At our English & Volleyball Camp, your English won’t be neglected either – all our teachers are accredited by the British Council.

ENGLISH LESSONS WHAT TO EXPECT

Lessons focus on sport and draw on the pupils’ enthusiasm for the subject to promote language learning in a fun and interactive environment. Using the CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning) model, qualified teachers integrate language learning into lively and active lessons centred on sport-related projects, discussions and activities. The teachers help pupils improve their oral communication skills whilst they discuss professional players, interview coaches or write and present their own match commentaries. Learning is supported by English-speaking teachers living locally, and only English is spoken throughout the camp, creating an immersive learning environment.

HOW IT WORKS

Pupils are placed into classes based on a combination of age and ability level. They complete a short online placement test before the camp begins and then speak to a teacher on arrival to ensure they are placed in the correct level. At the end of the camp, each player receives a written report and tips on how to continue their learning at home.

The camp is also available as a volleyball-only camp – please enquire!
