Ringwood Waldorf School's summer school set to shine for local and foreign students

RINGWOOD, U.K. - March 17, 2014 - PRLog -- Ringwood Waldorf School in Hampshire is set to open its doors again this summer to give both local and foreign students a chance to shine in the arts.

For the fourth year running, the Ringwood Waldorf School will become a summer school for 12 to 16 year-olds.

From July 13 and August 3, a whole range of artistic and outdoor based activities will be held at the school for both local young people and students from abroad.

Running parallel to the English language programme will also be a performing arts camp run by professionals, which is open to local young people and overseas students who have a high level of English

The numbers of students attending has been growing every year – and this year the school expects to welcome up to 60 young people from abroad.

To help accommodate them during their stay, the summer school needs local families who can give the children a temporary home.

Nigel Revill, Ringwood Waldorf School’s administrator, said: “Our summer school has been extremely popular in the relatively short time it has been running.

“We’re anticipating more children than ever attending so we’d really like to hear from local families who are interested in becoming host families.

“The activities at the summer school are also open to local young people and the performing arts camp provides a great opportunity for talented students to shine.”

Local children will take part in performing arts for three hours every morning and then, after lunch, participate in afternoon activities with the foreign students.

Host families in the area are also being sought now. They will be paid for providing a home to the children attending the summer school.
