We are now approaching the half-way point of the first session and with the lovely weather today it was another very enjoyable day here at Village Camps. The Five year olds and seven year olds spent the morning relaxing at the pbasketballool in Nyon, the first day that it has been warm enough to go there.

The seniors spent the afternoon making and testing boomerangs on the football pitch, and the fact that many of the boomerangs failed to return to the throwers was more than compensated for by the incredible original and colourful designs that the campers had painted on them.

The nine year olds went to Gland in the afternoon for a few hour of Bowling, they enjoyed themselves immensely and, like every year, they proved themselves to be more talented than their counselors by convincingly outscoring them. And SB1 were on one of the more popular excursions to the Lac de Divonne, where they spent the afternoon sailing.

Even with all the field trips that happened today, the Village Camps campus was never the less very busy today.  Thankfully the weather stayed nice all day, so all of our sports fields were bustling with activity, and as usual Drama, Dance, Arts and Crafts and the various other indoor activities were also busy. This complete reversal in the weather is definitely welcome, it does however bring with it a whole new set of problems, the temperature for tomorrow and the beginning of next week is supposed to be very high, so parents please make sure that your children have a bottle of water and some sun cream in their bags tomorrow.

Panda

Amir Ibrahim, or ‘Panda’ as he is affectionately known here at Village Camps, is this session's counselor for the SA3 group.

Hailing from Malaysia, this is Panda’s first year with us at Village Camps and he is already a hit favourite with the campers!

He just graduated from his course in Leisure Business Management from Manchester Metropolitan University and plans to work with children as a sports coach in the future.

Panda plays tennis, football, basketball and badminton, but due a knee injury has been unable to compete at any serious level for about a year now.  This, however, hasn’t stopped him giving our seniors a run for their money on the sports field!
