Camp it Up

Camp Asia is the coolest thing your kids can do during school holidays

As summer is fast approaching, parents might be wondering what there is for children to do in Ho Chi Minh City during the summer holidays? Look no further, Camp Asia has arrived!

Camp Asia is the leading holiday camp provider in Singapore and is launching in Vietnam from June 2018 through International School Saigon Pearl (ISSP). With a selection of 1, 2, 3 and 4-week camps available from June 18 to July 13, Camp Asia is flexible to suit everyone’s summer holiday plans.

The decision to introduce Camp Asia exclusively through ISSP was an obvious choice explains Angelina Tee, Managing Director, Vietnam for Cognita, “ISSP continues to provide an outstanding international education in Vietnam. The ISSP Leadership team are passionate and committed to improving every aspect of school life. Camp Asia can leverage this talent by providing a memorable experience for children during summer, in an environment that continues to be redeveloped with new facilities.”

Lester Stephens, Head of School at ISSP describes what it means to have been chosen by Camp Asia to be selected as an exclusive partner, “We, as a school community, are extremely honored. Camp Asia recognizes ISSP as the best international school for children from 18 months to 11 years old to launch in Vietnam.”

Launching a new holiday camp in an international environment has taken months of preparation as Kerriann Tyson-Jones, Head of Camp Asia shares, “I am thrilled to be bringing Singapore’s most successful children’s holiday camp to Vietnam. Ensuring the same quality and standard of camp is delivered has been integral to this expansion. It has been a pleasure supporting and working with the Camp Asia team at ISSP and developing the programs. I am sure the children (and teachers) will have lots of fun!”

With a selection of three programs to choose from, there is something for every child aged 18 months to 11 years old this summer. Each program focuses on continuing the development of physical, emotional and social skills whilst making new friendships in a fun and engaging environment through a balanced approach of conceptual learning, inquiry-based and the reinforcement of core skills.
