- KIPPIE KIDS CAMP
After some challenging times over the past few years, Kippie wish to improve the wellbeing of our children over summer 2022. We are delighted we will be delivering holiday activities for school age children, age 4–12-year-olds. Giving them the opportunity to connect through play, being active and enjoying themselves!
We will boost their confidence through an inclusive, positive experience via sports, expressive arts, crafts, outdoor learning, and hopefully trips and visits.
We will continue to have enhanced hygiene and cleaning processes, as well as being fortunate enough to maximise use of Kippie’s fantastic estate and outdoor space and provide plenty of access to fresh air.
- EVERY WEEK
Kippie camps are unique and provide a different theme across each week of the school holidays to entertain children. The camps make full use of the fantastic Kippie surroundings and facilities including our: Greenhouse, tennis courts, golf putting green, driving range, studios, squash courts, the lawn, creche, outdoor play area, allocated swimming sessions in the pool on a Tuesday and Thursday and will be based in the exclusive camp marquee.
There are no additional charges for extended hours: a full-day session is between 08.30 am and 5.30 pm and includes snacks, drinks, and a meal.
We pride ourselves on the camp Ratios, these ensure a fun and safe experience for everyone, at all times. One instructor is assigned a group of 6 children and we endeavour to group the children into appropriate age groups. In the past, the highlight of each week has been known to be our day trips.
