Summer Camps

The primary language of communication during the camp is English.

The primary mode of communication is WhatsApp for parents outside of China; and WeChat for parents in China. These platforms will allow us to share updates, reminders, and important information quickly and efficiently.

To download and install WhatsApp or WeChat, you can visit the respective app stores on your smartphone (Google Play Store for Android or App Store for iOS). Search for "WhatsApp" or "WeChat" and follow the instructions to download and install the app.

The amount of spending money your child should bring to the camp can vary depending on personal preferences and the activities available. We recommend RM50 -100 per day, or RM300 (min.) for the entirety of the camp.

If possible, please do exchange to Malaysian Ringgit before attending the camp. Avoid last-minute exchanges at the airport, as it is very expensive, we will have an exchange counter open at Epsom once they come in for the camp.

Debit cards are highly recommended for use in Malaysia due to their wide acceptance. They allow parents to monitor their child's spending and top-up as needed, facilitating oversight of expenses. While on excursions, it's important to note that spending decisions are personal to each family and beyond our control.

Nurses to verify first and inform parents. If the symptoms worsen, we'll refer to a doctor and hospitalise if required.

If they heavily rely on it, it is recommended to bring their own, Malaysia uses a 220V hairdryer.

For younger students, if they're on their period we usually get them to relax for the session and not do anything too exhausting, but if they are able to, we will find them something else to do.

The food provided at the camp will be made to the liking of the kids - our focus is to create a balance between taste and nutritious meals. Please do note, students may struggle in the first week with food as it is cooked in a different style. Any specific dietary needs or restrictions when registering, so appropriate arrangements can be made.

The camp will have qualified staff members and counsellors who will provide supervision and guidance to the campers throughout the programme. The level of supervision may vary depending on the age group and specific activities. The safety and well-being of the campers are a top priority for the camp organisers.

Camps prioritise the safety of their participants and typically have safety measures in place. These may include trained staff, emergency protocols, security measures, and appropriate supervision during activities. It's advisable to review the camp's safety policies or contact the organisers for specific information regarding the safety measures in place.

We have contingency plans for bad weather. Alternatives such as indoor activities, alternative programme schedules, or sheltered spaces are available. The camp organisers will prioritise the safety and well-being of the campers and make necessary adjustments to ensure a positive camp experience despite inclement weather.

This serves as a guideline to minimise the risk of infectious diseases and foster responsible health practices. Whilst we respect each family's personal choices, we highly recommend, in the interests of everyone's health and well-being, that all eligible attendees receive both the COVID-19 and annual flu vaccinations prior to attending the camp. Regardless of vaccination status, we will carry out comprehensive health and safety measures, which include but not limited to: 1. Regular cleaning and sanitisation of common areas and surfaces. 2. Promoting regular hand-washing with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. 3. Provision of hand sanitiser throughout the camp. 4. Education on good cough and sneeze etiquette. 5. Monitoring the health conditions of all attendees.

All medications, including prescription and over-the-counter, must be submitted to the designated medical or house staff upon arrival at the camp. Parents/guardians should provide detailed instructions, including dosage, frequency, and any special considerations. Medications will be securely stored and dispensed only by authorised staff, and students are not permitted to self-administer medications except in exceptional circumstances with prior written consent from parents/guardians. Emergency medications like epinephrine auto-injectors or asthma inhalers must be carried by authorised students at all times, with the designated staff informed of these students and their medications. In the event of a medical emergency, the designated medical staff will assess the situation and provide necessary first aid and medical care, promptly notifying parents/guardians about the situation and actions taken. If emergency medical treatment or hospitalisation is required, the designated medical staff will accompany the student to the medical facility and provide necessary support, ensuring parents/guardians are immediately informed and involved in the decision-making process. Parents/guardians must provide accurate and up-to-date information regarding their child's medical conditions, allergies, and medications during the registration process and promptly communicate any changes to the camp's designated medical staff. Consent for medication administration and emergency medical care is included in the registration process and must be reviewed and approved by parents/guardians. Additionally, parents/guardians are responsible for ensuring that all medications provided to the camp are within their expiry dates and properly labelled with the student's name, dosage, and instructions.

Respect: All participants are expected to treat everyone with respect, kindness, and value differences in opinions. Cooperation: All participants are encouraged to follow instructions, actively engage in group activities and collaborate with peers to create a positive and inclusive environment. Safety: The safety and well-being of all individuals at the camp are of utmost importance. Participants are expected to adhere to safety rules and guidelines, and report any unsafe situations immediately. Responsibility: Participants are responsible for their actions and the consequences that may arise. They should take care of camp property, their personal belongings, and respect the property of others. Good Attendance and Punctuality: Participants are expected to attend all scheduled activities and arrive on time to ensure smooth running of the camp's programme. Discipline Policies: If a student's behaviour violates expectations, disciplinary actions such as verbal warnings, time-outs, loss of privileges, or temporary separation from activities will be taken. Parents/guardians will be informed of significant issues. For ongoing challenges, behaviour improvement plans may be developed with parents/guardians. In severe or repeated instances where a camper's behaviour poses a risk to their own safety or that of others, the camp reserves the right to expel the camper after providing prior notification to the parents or guardians.
