The Young Adventurers Summer Course at Marlborough College is tailored for children aged 9 to 12 years, offering a delightful blend of fun, adventure, and education set within the picturesque surroundings of Marlborough College. The program features a well-rounded selection of activities that promote personal growth, individual skill development, teamwork, and creativity. In the early evenings, participants can engage in a host of exciting activities, including outdoor adventures, treasure hunts, swimming with inflatables, Jailbreak, and more. With a focus on both entertainment and learning, the Young Adventurers program ensures a memorable and enriching summer experience for young participants.
The guiding principles of Marlborough are 'adventure, risk, creativity, and fun'. Two versions of the course are available: one for native English speakers and another tailored for students requiring concurrent English language instruction, determined through an assessment upon arrival. The curriculum delves into a specific theme during the first week, transitioning to collaborative projects in the subsequent week. For instance, previous modules like 'silence and noise' probed contemporary issues of connectivity and community.
Marlborough offers a variety of fun extracurricular activities, including fly fishing, clay pigeon shooting, tennis, martial arts, horse riding, and multi-sport outdoor adventures.
