WHat our parent and children had to say about our 2023 Camp:

My children love summer camp and they find it more fun and better. This is because they can choose their activities . They liked having fun with their friends. They have enjoyed making new friends and they love the experience of summer camp. 

I would just like to thank you all for what you do.

The team have been so considerate of supporting my son.  They're a wonderful team.

My daughter really loved camp this year, and found it the best year yet. She loves the freedom of being able to choose what to do. The activities are better than last year, seem really well planned out, very imaginative and she is finding it very exciting. A massive thank you to all the staff involved.

 

What our parents and children had to say about our 2022 Camp: 

Thank you for all of your hard work making the camp so much fun for my son who was apprehensive to attend.

They’ve had such a blast at camp, please keep it going!

It’s been brilliant - the staff and teams have done such a brilliant job offering an excellent camp over the 3 weeks! A big thank you to all involved!! We’ve used camps local to Walton previously, and this has surpassed them all.

My daughter greatly enjoyed her time at camp, especially the performing arts dance/singing classes which gave a good balance to the physical/sport activities. Its great to be able to trust that she is in more than capable hands with trained staff from the Lumen Trust.

Staff very friendly. Great set up. We are very lucky to have use of this camp.

The camp provides a safe, fun & familiar surroundings for the children attending, whilst also offering good hours and personally speaking, is very good value for money. The communication is good and there is direct contact with the camp leader to ask any questions, provide feedback etc. The staff are approachable and take on board comments and where possible implement changes that will improve the child's enjoyment of the camp. Would definitely book again and recommend to others.

Both my boys have had such a great time. The 3 weeks always go so fast. The boys really like all the staff, they are always so kind, fun and enthusiastic. The range of activities is always fantastic.

From a parent’s point of view the staff are amazing and I know the boys will be very well looked after and safely too. I look forward to using the camp in 2023 (please run it again).

Really pleased with the camp and would book again. Thanks to all the staff.

What our parents and children had to say about previous Camps:

Great summer camp. My daughter thoroughly enjoyed her time and wants to return next year for the full 3 weeks. The mini bus service is excellent.

Just want to say a massive thanks to all the staff at the camp for making it such a fun and engaging time. Really puts my mind at ease knowing my kids are having a great time while I'm at work.

Throughly recommend to anyone. My sons loved everyday. We’ll be back in 2022! I asked my youngest which was his favourite day.. in his words “they were all too good, I can’t pick”.

We've been really impressed by what the camp has offered, the minibus, flexibility of days, swimming everyday, communication and range of activities/themes has been brilliant.

Always love seeing the gallery pictures and the staff definitely seem to have as much fun as the children! Fantastic theme days,brilliant activities. See you all next year!!

So lovely to see the kids so happy and having fun.

I love that you cater for younger children and also love that you offer flexible days and times and the ability to cancel.

The camp was extremely well organised and the information given both before and during was spot on. There wasn't a point where I was unaware of what was going to happen. My children have never been before and will definitely return next year. They have enjoyed every session that they attended. Thank you to all of the team for the hard work that they have put in. It is appreciated.

The staff are outstanding. It is very clear the staff have fun too.

Amazing experience for our son once again. He absolutely loves the Lumen Summer Camp and wants to be on them for the full three weeks every year now. Thank you for the amazing work you are doing.

My daughter has thoroughly enjoyed her time at camp. She is ready for me to book next year already. Thank you for the time and effort you have put in to making the camp engaging and fun. Your arrangements for social distancing and keeping the children safe have also been very reassuring.

Thank you so much. The camp has been brilliant and surpassed expectations. The staff are all brilliant, welcoming and I can hear from our house how much fun they are having when they do the team games on the field (we live right by Saxon!). The range of activities is great. A mixture of art and craft and exercise. Thank you to all of the team involved in making it so much fun, safe and memorable.

The camp has been outstanding and I recommend to all parents. The staff have been amazing and the level of energy and activities has been brilliant.

The children have really enjoyed Summer Camp and have had lots to talk about when they’ve come home. Camp is really well organised and having themed days is a great way to keep the children interested. I also feel happy that they are being well looked after by school staff.  Camp has been particularly good for my youngest, who is starting at a Lumen school in September, as it’s given her the opportunity to get to know some of the staff, children and school grounds. I’m sure this will be really beneficial and help her settle in well. 

My son has loved going again, and said to give you “top marks”. It’s great and it is good hours as well for us as full time workers. Thanks for another great year.

Good value for money, very polite staff and made me feel my daughter was safe.

"Thank you for running such a fantastic Summer Camp. Both of my children have had a great time and it was brilliant being able to send them both together considering the gap in their ages. My oldest child has had a great time and I am extremely impressed with how well my three year old settled in. For a child who normally does not like to leave me it was reassuring to see him go in happy, without a glance back. Thank you for all your hard work."

I didn't like summer camp, I LOVED IT!

We would just like to thank you all for making the first weeks of the summer holiday so much fun. My child enjoyed every moment of it and has always been very enthusiastic every morning to go. Big thanks to everyone for organising the fun activities and for all you efforts. Greatly appreciated!

My son was initially very reluctant as he is quite shy in new situations. However, we swayed him with promises of superhero days and face painting. He LOVED it from day one and is very upset he now has to go on holiday with his parents and will miss Summer Camp! The staff were excellent, he loved every activity and the themed days were a massive success - it built anticipation and gave him an excuse to play dress-up. It also meant that we (his parents) were involved in the day, the planning and excitement. We are absolutely certain we will book sessions for next year. Many, many thanks!

My children have thoroughly enjoyed camp again this year. When they come home they can’t stop talking about the activities they have been taking part in and how much fun they have had! We will definitely be booking again next year. I’d also like to comment on how well organised the days and activities seem to be. Well done.

My son has thoroughly enjoyed attending the Lumen Summer Camp this year. Every evening he had something new to tell us about, especially some new sport challenge or game he was involved in or some advice he had received on how to exercise better. He had a lot of fun and is looking forward to going back . Thank you!

It was the best thing that has ever happened to me in infinity years!
