Camps for children aged 8 to 14

Are you aged between 8 and 14? Would you like to spend 14 days in Switzerland to get to know your homeland better? Then sign up for one of the holiday camps run by the Foundation for Young Swiss Abroad. We organise summer holiday camps in the most beautiful regions of Switzerland during July and August.

Programme

At our camps you will have the opportunity to see the sights, to discover lakes, mountains, rivers and magnificent scenery, to go on short hikes and perhaps enjoy city visits. Some of the days are also spent at the camp, where you can enjoy games, sport and a variety of workshops. You will also be given the chance to learn lots of interesting things about Switzerland. We look at the Swiss languages, Swiss songs, Swiss recipes and typically Swiss games and sports. The interaction between participants, which rises above all barriers of language, culture and nationality, is an opportunity to enjoy unforgettable experiences and to forge lots of new friendships.

Prices

The prices of the offers are quoted in the list below. The Foundation for Young Swiss Abroad would like all Swiss children abroad to have at least one opportunity to enjoy a holiday in Switzerland. This is why a fund for reduced contributions has been set up. An application form can be requested with your registration.

Travel/meeting point

Experienced, multilingual teams of leaders ensure the two-week holiday camps are well-organised and offer a wide variety of activities.

Leaders

Mehrsprachige und erfahrene Leiterteams sorgen während der zwei Wochen für einen reibungslosen und abwechslungsreichen Ablauf der Ferienlager.

Registration

Exact details of the individual holiday camps and the registration form will be available from Monday, 15 February 2010 at www.aso.ch (Offers/Offers for Children and Young People). We would also be pleased to send you our information brochure by post on request. The registration deadline is 15 March 2010.
