A Day in London

Students on our Summer Junior courses have 9 excursions - 3 full day and 3 half day trips - as part of their package. Obviously, one of the most popular trips is a day in London. Buckingham Palace, Trafalgar Square and the Science Museum are some of the highlights....

All the fun of the circus

We brought the circus to St Clare's! All afternoon students our Summer Juniors were learning how to do circus tricks and learn new skills - balancing, juggling, riding and mastering hula hoops. These are just some of the fun activities our juniors can do on campus...

Enjoy developing your English language skills this summer
