We are committed to maintaining an optimal camp size to ensure that every student enjoys a high-quality and enriching learning experience. Our small class sizes and strong student-to-staff ratios enable personalised attention and meaningful engagement.

The core teacher-to-student ratio is 1:10, with an overall adult-to-student ratio of 1:8 to 1:10 across all activities.

Students are supported by a team that includes lead instructors, the Programme Director, sports coaches, mentors, ensuring both academic and creative guidance throughout the camp.

This is not a typical activity-based camp. It is a structured, outcome-driven programme focused on leadership, communication, and real-world skills. Students work on projects, receive feedback, and leave with a personal leadership portfolio

At Epsom College, campers are accommodated in same-gender boarding houses with shared rooms designed to foster a strong sense of community and belonging.

Roommates are assigned based on age, gender, and, where possible, shared interests or project tracks. We aim to create a comfortable and positive living environment where campers can relax, connect, and make new friends.

If your child is attending with a friend and they’d like to room together, you can indicate this during registration—we’ll do our best to accommodate requests. Our team also checks in regularly to ensure campers feel settled and supported throughout their stay.

Meals, including breakfast, lunch, dinner are served in buffet style and are provided throughout the camp. They are nutritious, balanced, and designed to cater to the needs of active, growing children.

Parents are asked to indicate any specific dietary requirements or restrictions during registration so that appropriate arrangements can be made in advance. If your child has complex dietary needs or severe allergies, we encourage you to reach out directly to our team so we can ensure their requirements are safely and fully met.

Student safety is our top priority during all outdoor activities and excursions. All activities are planned and delivered following comprehensive risk assessments, and are led by experienced staff with the appropriate training. Students are closely supervised at all times, with staff-to-student ratios suited to the nature of each activity and environment.

If a child becomes ill or injured during camp, they will be assessed and treated by qualified staff or referred promptly to a medical professional if needed. Parents or guardians will be notified as soon as possible in the event of any significant illness or injury or if external medical care is required.

The camp team will ensure that any medication or treatment needed is administered according to parental instructions and with proper documentation. Emergency contact details are kept on file and used when necessary to ensure timely communication and consent for care.

All campers are required to have comprehensive travel insurance covering medical expenses, trip cancellation or interruption, baggage loss, and personal liability. Parents are responsible for purchasing insurance for their children. We strongly recommend adding both travel and medical insurance as a precaution.

Yes, campers are required to bring their own laptop for the camp. While a laptop is recommended—especially for projects and group work—campers may use iPads as an alternative to access learning materials and the dedicated learning website. Ideally, iPads should be paired with a keyboard accessory to ensure functionality similar to a laptop.
