Based on our fantastic week at Easter when 22 children joined in our activities, we are planning to make the time as fun filled as possible - purposeful play! I am conscious that many parents want their kids to keep studying, but I like to sneak up on the children so they don't realise they are working!

The children may help to decide the topics they want to study but that will depend on the age and capabilities of the group involved. I like the children to feel they have input into their activities. If you look at our photos you will see the sort of thing we have done in the past, such as making a puppet show and creating a town.

The topics I have in mind to kick start us are 'Under the Sea' and 'Pirates' but the choice is endless! The Diamond Jubilee and Olympics in UK are also events that would make for interesting activities.

At 11.00 we will be stopping for snack time, and around 1.00 will be time for packed lunches, all of
which the parents provide. We have a fridge available at the centre to store food safely.

Here is a provisional daily timetable:

9.00-10.00 play activities at the centre to practise English and maths skills - socialisation - conversation
10.00-11.00 sporty games at Atlantic Hotel tennis court
11.00 - 1.00 English skills based on topic chosen for the week - reading, writing & listening skills
1.00 - 3.00 art & craft activities
3.00 - 4.00 playtime

Children can be dropped off & collected at any time between 9 - 4, and the charges are as follows:
€2.50 per hour
€15 per day
€70 per week ( to be paid in advance on Monday morning)

Hope to see you and your children in July and August!

This week we are pleased to welcome three new students to Callao Learning Centre for the summer. Efim, Kostya and Vasilisa have come from Russia for a holiday and to learn English.

Eelis and Saku will be heading back to Finland for their summer holidays. Hope you have a great time!

The Centre is looking forward to many other children joining us for study sessions and play activities all through the summer. Just contact us for times and dates that fit in with your holiday plans, and to give the children a head start in their lessons when they go back to school in September.

The study sessions are independent from the activity timetable, and can be arranged to suit individual needs.

Our numbers are steadily growing for September.
We offer small group teaching in one of our three classrooms, with access to the full UK maths and English curriculum delivered in a topic based framework. Spanish taught daily.
All individually matched to the needs of the children.
The family group atmosphere provides a stable, friendly environment for children to flourish and grow at their own pace.

The holiday activities are going well. Please ring the centre before you come as we may not have any places when you arrive!
Children can come for one hour up to seven hours a day - prices €2.50 an hour, €15 per day ( save €2.50) or €70 for the whole week Monday to Friday. (save €17.50)
The centre is open from 9am until 4 pm.

We will be open Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday morning this week and then closed for holiday activities until Monday August 27th - there will be activities planned for the last two weeks of the holidays.

School term starts on Monday 10th September when I am looking forward to welcoming all the new pupils into the school.

If you need information or advice, I can be reached via email: info[AT]callaolearning.org or by phone: 922 742 000

All the information needed to register your child for the start of the school year in September can be found on the website - link in my signature.

Places are filling up fast and as the centre is small there are not many left.

If you download the admission form and email it to me I can let you know our current situation, and you can, if you wish, pay a deposit to secure your place for the term, which will form part of the payment for the first month's fees.

The Centre is open for holiday activities from 27th August until the school term starts on September 10th.

Open this morning at 9.00. if your young person is getting bored with the long holiday, why not bring them along to join in with some sport or craft activities from €2.50 per hour, 9 - 4 daily ( except weekends).
