Review: October Holiday Camps 2017

 
We kicked off the spring break in the first week of October by hosting one holiday camp with a fresh and exciting theme. 
 
Upside Down week: 1-8 October
 
This week, our theme was “Upside Down” and the main focus of the theme was getting campers to see the world from another perspective, which was highlighted by an activity, implemented daily called “Thunk of the day”. We hosted a total of 57 campers this week and had the most fun turning everything upside down. The campers participated in and enjoyed many activities integrated around the theme, such as; Upside Down activities, Upside Down meals, Upside Down programs and Upside Down set-up. They were also taken on a themed excursion to 22 Jump Street, indoor trampoline arena in Ballito, where they had fun flipping upside down and bouncing around on the trampolines. The highlight of this week was certainly having lunch for breakfast and breakfast for lunch towards the middle of camp. Turning the menu upside down really brought the theme alive and created a trend that our campers found very thrilling and were very fond of.
