FAQs

What if my child gets homesick?

During their stay with us, we encourage children to be independent and engage in developing friendships and strong bonds. In the event of homesickness, we aim to reinforce a positive attitude and give encouragement to participate in activities. If they are still feeling homesick, then we will provide them with contact to home, where they can discuss their homesickness with a parent or guardian.

Both male and female staff are available 24 hours a day to ensure that your child is looked after both during the day and the night.

We provide a kit list upon booking confirmation which details what children need to bring with them. You can view this document on our Resources page. Ensure to bring to essentials such as change of warm clothes, water bottle, sun cream, but you can view further details via the kit list.
