Review: June/July Holiday Camps

Our June/July holiday camps at Sugar Bay were absolutely incredible! We were host to a total of 208 cool campers during the winter break. “Winter break”, hahaha, not sure why they call it a winter break on the warm KZN coast. The season didn't stop us from having as much Sugar Bay fun as we usually do in summer. We were fortunate enough to have sunshine throughout our holiday camps with a mild chill in the air during the evenings. If anything, we had a sunny



Angry Birds week: 26 June – 3 July


We took off with the Angry Birds as our first theme for our June/July holiday camps. Our camp was transformed into the life-size version of the popular mobile game and our campers were given the opportunity to spread their wings and have some extraordinary feather flocking fun! We even went on an excursion to the Umgeni Bird Park in Durban, keeping with the theme and learning more about the spectacular bird species that South Africa has to offer.

All American Bash week: 3 – 10 July

 

Before we knew it, June turned into July and it was time to celebrate with America as they celebrated their annual Independence day on the 4th of July. We celebrated with America all week long during All American Bash week. From Independence day, all the way to Halloween – we certainly had a bash all round. We even went on an excursion to the Barnyard Theatre at the Gateway Theatre of Shopping in Umhlanga, where we watched a popular production called 90's Mania. The American Dream became a reality for all of our campers during this themed holiday camp.

Jungle Book week: 10 – 17 July 

 



We heard a human cry in our Sugar Bay Jungle, and that's when we knew Mowgli was here and it was time for The Jungle Book week at Sugar Bay. Camp was turned into a Jungle with twirling snakes hanging from the ceiling and roaring tigers heard from a distance. All our campers were brave enough to bring out their inner man cub spirit and face the wild the same way Mowgli did. We also headed out on a wild, jungle-inspired excursion to the Hluhluwe Game Reserve in Umfolozi where our campers got to experience the Big Five right before their eyes. We went wild during The Jungle Book week and made many memorable memories.

The best means of keeping them away from their lit screens all the time is by motivating them to participate in engaging activities.

Stalk the lantern Stalk the lantern is a game which was inspired by the army and typically played during the dark. Everyone needs to be dressed in black and have their faces painted, just as the soldiers camouflage themselves in the army. Divide the players into teams and select the same number as the teams to get representatives to form the lantern. The representatives are responsible for shining the flashlight on players in order to get them out of the game. The objective of the game is to get as close to the lantern as p
