Always on the move at Bad Malente language camp
Badminton, soccer, table tennis ... if you like sports, you’ll love this camp. Here at Bad Malente, we burn off energy together, discover some new favorite sports, and improve our English skills along the way. What’s more, we do all this in the dreamy setting of the Holstein Switzerland region whose glittering lakes and fairy-tale forests are just waiting to be explored.
Improving English skills at Bad Malente language camp
Our holiday camp in Bad Malente combines English lessons in the mornings with a varied leisure program in the afternoons. During lessons, the focus is on creativity: for example, kids will write content for our camp magazine, draw and describe their own pictures, or act out fairy tales in English. That way, we teach kids to enjoy the foreign language through play.
Learning English during the school break? That’s not a problem with our Berlitz English camps! Unlike school lessons, the aim here is not to teach as much material and grammar as possible. We use the Berlitz method of "learning by speaking", i.e. as much active speaking as possible. We offer kids:
- Lessons five mornings a week (4 x 45 minutes each)
- Kids are encouraged to actively use English in small groups.
On the day of arrival, we’ll assign kids to learning groups according to their age and previous knowledge.
Action, language and laughs in Bad Malente
Who says you have to sit down to learn a language? Whether we’re having dinner or during an escape game, we keep on speaking English even after the morning language classes are done. In fact, the only times we don’t speak English are during safety briefings and on tours run by external partners.
The kinds of sports we do to blow off steam depend on the weather and the wishes of the group. But one thing’s for sure: There’s never a dull moment at Bad Malente language camp.
A sport for every taste: Our afternoon program
We have the opportunity to do a huge range of sports here in Bad Malente, so active kids can burn off their energy in whatever way they like. Whether you prefer badminton, table tennis, ultimate frisbee, or handball, there’s guaranteed to be the perfect activity for everyone here.
We don’t just do sports on dry land, either: Depending on the season and the weather, we can go swimming out in Lake Dieksee or in the complex’s own five-lane pool. We can also do water aerobics in the shallow area.
Cozy evenings at the language camp
After so much sport and fun, it’s time to have dinner together. And when that’s done, we’ll enjoy a relaxed end to the evening. We’ll organize a movie night, have a casino evening or challenge each other in a fun quiz show.
The exciting day ends for participants of our Day Camps with afternoon activities at 5 p.m. But don’t worry: The next day directly starts at 9 a.m. with language training and varied activities.
Important note: The offered activities are depending on the weather, date, and availability – therefore the program may vary.

Additional information
"Let’s speak English" – that’s the motto we follow at the Bad Malente Berlitz Camp. Our experienced counselors are at the kids’ side all day long. Both during lessons that take place in small groups in the mornings and during the fun and action in the afternoons and evenings. Our focus: to ensure all kids speak English all day long.
The best proof of the success of our Berlitz concept: many counselors were camp participants themselves in the past and support us year after year!
Providing the best all-round support at our Berlitz language camps is important to us. That also includes a balanced diet. Kids will receive three meals a day and these include drinks like juice, tea, or water. Please pack a reusable water bottle, so that your child can fill it up in between meals.
We try our best to offer alternatives for kids with special requests, such as vegetarians or those with allergies. Please contact our team before booking so that we can discuss this on a one-on-one basis.
Here's how it goes: We start on the first day at the time specified in the travel documents. All participants will receive an email with the exact details before the camp starts. All children will receive a welcome pack to start the camp.
The most important things about departure: On the day of departure, parents can pick up their children at the time specified in the travel documents. As our entire team is also leaving, a later pick-up is unfortunately not possible. Therefore, please be on time.
Then take a look at our kids camp FAQ page where we have gathered further information.
We will also send you further details regarding the pack list, arrival and departure etc. by e-mail after your booking.
