Holiday Camps

Our program is specially designed for children aged from 5 to 12 years old and offers a special variety of activities and the opportunity to make friends, learn new skills and grow as a person.
Nestling in the foothills of Mount Vitosha, our school is situated on a state-of-the-art campus, which covers a plot of land of almost 8 hectares. It offers excellent facilities and kids with all kinds of interests will fall in love with our summer program.

Although still structured, the classes are more relaxed than the school routine and provide time and freedom for spontaneous play.
Our team helps children connect to the joy of life beyond the screen. Regardless of their interests, the students will learn and socially interact in a healthy, real-world setting at AAS. We believe time away from the screen is vital to a child’s brain, body, spirit and future, and could benefit us all.
There is also a medical team on site.

Cooking and Baking

Cooking is always fun – especially when you make a yummy mess!!!

Product Design / Week 1 & 2/ 

How do students learn most effectively? When they’re active and having fun of course! In the Product Design sessions, students will have the option of inventing, designing and making products of their own in order to solve a problem or issue. They will also learn how to create an effective sales pitch in order to market their designs to an audience.

Mini Olympics /Week 1 & 2 /

Students will compete as individuals and teams in order to complete a series of challenges across a variety of “sports” .

Finally, in the Team-building exercises, the students will develop their problem solving and group work skills to complete a variety of challenges. So, if you’re interested in being active and having fun, this is the place to be! 🙂

The free time during the recess – 30 minutes in the morning and 60 minutes in the afternoon – offers a great opportunity for the children to run, skip, jump, climb, laugh, and breathe the fresh air out of Sofia and get a healthy dose of Vitamin D.
Once a week we go hiking and during the last week of the summer school, if the weather allows, we visit a swimming pool.
