Summer Camps in Spain for Kids Ages 6 to 12
SURROUNDED BY NATURE, IN THE COMMUNITY OF MADRID, SPAIN
Aimed at those children who love the outdoors, trees, rivers, animals and nature in general.
There will also be plenty of fun, cooperative games, activities with friends, laughter, exercise, learning to get along, and to take care of oneself. We break with technological routines: total digital disconnection, replacing the “virtual world” with the outdoors, friends and adventure.

SUMMER CAMP – 100% Nature
SPECIALISED “NATURE CLASS” CAMP
SUMMER CAMPS FOR KIDS IN SPAIN
The aim of the Jarama Nature 2019 summer camp is for children to develop their personalities and cultivate values like solidarity, responsibility, and understanding, all while they learn and fully enjoy nature.
Designed and supervised by counsellors specialised in different areas of the outdoors: biologists, ornithologists, beekeepers, artists, teachers and other professionals who, through their applied knowledge, will instil in campers a healthy curiosity and deep respect for the preservation of nature.
COMPLEMENTARY ACTIVITIES
FOR PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT
In addition to the specific activities of the Nature Classroom described above, at the JARAMA NATURE camp children can enjoy lots of different activities, in nature and on the farm!
We have carefully chosen a variety of activities that complement each other and further the student’s integral development, alternating between fun ones and those that require students to make a greater effort to improve?
Activities and traditional, artisanal and cooking workshops complement our total Nature immersion camp. The kids will be able to work with wicker and leather to make baskets, bracelets and purses, as well as cooking delicious cakes, cookies, pizzas, and other homemade recipes in the cooking workshop. They will use natural materials to make dreamcatchers, and learn about other cultures through our Akhá village. And, of course, they will be exposed to our farm animals, every day.
DAILY EXERCISE
WE NEED IT
The importance of movement, exercise and sports leads us to dedicate time daily to different team sports and games of different characteristics.
DAILY SWIMMING
Every day we will have a good time in the pool, with free play and fun-filled synchronised swimming tournaments!
HORSEBACK RIDING
All the kids will participate in 3 horseback riding sessions. An introduction, a practice session in the ring, and a ride.
SPORTS
Water polo, baseball, ball-less football, basketball and football tournaments will be organised, among other sports.
GAMES
Games will be part of every day at camp! Cooperative and traditional games, parachute games, speed cups, water gymkhanas, body painting, and many more!
WE LOVE CHALLENGES
INDIVIDUAL AND GROUP
Multi-adventure activities are always very popular amongst children. These are ideal challenges to test and improve their skills and physical abilities, and their desire to excel, while strengthening both personal independence and teamwork too. They are ideal for shots of adrenaline and raising self-esteem.
During the camp the children can enjoy a variety of multi-adventure activities, surrounded by nature, which also means being immersed in it, learning about it, and respecting it.
TIBETAN BRIDGE, ARCHERY, INDOOR CLIMBING WALL, ZIPLINE, AND CANOES ON THE RIVER JARAMA!
PRESILLAS DE RASCAFRÍA (NATURAL POOLS)
Halfway through the fortnight we will make an excursion to the natural pools of Rascafria, in the Valle de Paular (valley), Madrid. We will enjoy incredible views of the Pico Peñalara (peak), and swimming in three natural pools surrounded by green meadows.
*The excursion is only included in the fortnightly camps.
FORGING FRIENDSHIPS
MAGICAL MOMENTS AT OUR NIGHTTIME GATHERINGS
Evening events full of action and movement. Night-time games are a very important part of the programme. Children not only give free rein to their imaginations, and overcome their fear of the dark, but this is also a time that brings the group together. Campers help each other, older kids aiding younger ones, as they work as a team, support each other, and above all, have fun. This is an essential aspect of our summer camps for children, before relaxing and going to sleep.
Some of these events are even organised by the campers themselves!
THE FAIR
Each counsellor creates an attraction or game, and builds it so that the rest of the children enjoy it. In turn, they enjoy the attractions and games that their counterparts created during the day. They can earn “coins” to exchange for treats and juice!
HAUNTED HOUSE (HOUSE/MUSEUM FOR THE YOUNGEST CAMPERS)
The older campers prepare a spooky Haunted House! They spend all day working on it, creating a story, its characters, props, decorations, and everything involved in creating a haunted passage to receive the other campers on the night of the Fair. A fantastically frightening time!
THE CASINO
A group of “almost big kids” prepares a night of games, betting and fun, at the Casino. They take care of everything! Roulette, blackjack, card games, and many other casino games for children to enjoy.
HOLLYWOOD NIGHT
The most eagerly awaited night ? The evening when many budding artists make their debuts. For days, each working group combines its strengths and exercises all its creativity to produce the very best performance it can. Some sing, others dance, some act out small plays, others juggle… all these talents shine on this night of Stars! Here you can see some of the most creative examples from this night.
MOVIE NIGHT
What better way to relax after a day out on an excursion than to put on your pyjamas and watch a movie?
A FAREWELL PARTY, WITH A SPECIAL DINNER AND DISCO!!
The camp comes to a close, and we want to go out on a high note! On the last night of camp we throw a party on which we have hamburgers with French fries and our waiters, the counsellors, put on their traditional farewell show for us. Don’t miss any of them; click here!

SPANISH
OUR TRADITIONAL CAMP, 100% IN SPANISH
Our traditional Spanish Camp is run by our traditional Spanish team. All activities are carried out in Spanish and many of our students have known our group leaders for years. They have become role models that inspire the students for a life-time. Students are encouraged, accompanied, and empowered by them. It is the ideal camp to learn Spanish with Spanish leaders and Spanish friends.
ENGLISH
FULL LANGUAGE IMMERSION. 24 HOURS IN ENGLISH
In our English summer camps, we focus on the following 3 concepts: 24 hours of fun, English without classes!, and ratio 1:8, 1 leader every 8 campers!
The best option to practice and improve your English without any effort 🙂
