Life at the Bay

At Sugar Bay we know about energy. Like the beautiful Indian ocean on our doorstep, the energy ebbs and flows in our little piece of paradise: increasing with the arrival of new students and decreasing with sad farewells to new friends. As an office dweller, you can always feel the positive energy on the days when campers are due to arrive. From the moment the school bus drives through those beautifully branded gates, the excitement is almost overwhelming.

Everyone at Sugar Bay has been buzzing with excitement because yesterday the Clifton Prep Grade 5's arrived and transformed camp into the magical place it's meant to be.

They had an awesome day at the beach and an epic Treasure Hunt last night complete with mischievous jungle creatures! See pics on our Official Facebook Page . We've already had plenty of fun this morning with a nice morning swim. We then conquered our fears in Crate Building and spent some time practicing our Skating skills.   Although Clifton is only staying a few days with us and will be heading back to Nottingham Road far too soon for our liking, we're sure they'll have an incredible time here and can't wait to hear all the stories they share with our crazy counselors!
