Looking for something quite different this October for children in P7 to S2?
Get your children away from screens this half term. Learn with the Chemistry Department at George Watson’s College exactly what they might need to survive a zombie apocalypse.
This week long interactive camp will get them ready for the ultimate survival challenge, training those smart enough to sign up, in ways to escape the undead.
Over five action-packed days, campers will master vital skills to stay safe when under siege, create protective equipment…. (nobody wants to get bitten), learn how to cook and preserve food and set up communication channels with other survivors.
The goal is to survive to the end of the week when there will be a heart-pounding zombie escape room where all the newly learned skills will be put to the test.
This is not just a camp – it’s also a chance to earn a British Science Association Crest Award which is evidence that camp graduates are ready for anything.
Chemistry teacher Rebecca More from George Watson’s College who will lead the camp, is excited to “share our passion for STEM in a fun and seasonally apt way” and open the school’s doors to all young people”.
Not a zombie fan? Try a Multisport Camp!
If zombies aren’t your thing, their popular Multisport Camp is also running. Led by The Galleon’s brilliant team, these camps offer a week of fun, physical activities giving the chance to try new sports, learn new skills and make new friends. Campers will get to try sports like hockey, netball, badminton and lacrosse as well as lots of team games that are suitable for all ages and abilities.
