School holiday camps for tweens and teens

28 October, 2018 by Expat Living 2 Min Read

https://expatliving.hk/school-holiday-camps-for-teenagers-in-hong-kong/

There’s always plenty of options for the little ones in Hong Kong, but what do you do to keep your too-cool-for-school teenagers occupied in the break? Here’s a few ideas for school holiday camps that should appeal to older children and get them doing something engaging or constructive during their time off.

Easter School Holiday Camps for tweens and teens
Keep tweens and teens occupied is no mean feat

Treasure Island

Get your kids out learning to surf or engaging in a spot of abseiling or rock climbing on Lantau at a Treasure Island Group camp. The camp programs offer the chance for teens to have fun, while also engaging in personal development and discovery. The camps are usually held in chilled-out Pui O with some even including overnight camping. Their camps are usually suitable for teens aged up to 15 years.

British Council

The holidays are a good time to catch up and consolidate on some of the year’s class work. The British Council usually offers intensive English language courses in the holidays. The program is divided into three age sections and classes aim to help children improve their language skills through activity-based learning techniques. The courses cater for kids aged up to 16 years.

5 steps for a stylish Christmas, courtesy of Hong Kong-based home furnishing retailer @indigo_living 🎄
 
#1 Decide on a Theme:
Every momentous Christmas feast begins with a stunning table-scape. Whether you’re going for the classic red and green pairing or a contemporary setting, pick a theme that you can go all out with! 
 
#2 Organise Your Linen:
Generally speaking, a crisp white linen table-runner will do. But if you’re looking to up the ante this year, go for one with subtle prints on it. 
 
#3 Choose a Centrepiece:
 A beautiful Christmas centrepiece is the fastest way to add cheer to your party. It’s also a great excuse to show off your creative flair to friends and family. 
 
#4 Invest in a Good Set of Tableware:
When it comes to tableware, most people play it safe with crystal glasses and porcelain plates. Why not take it up a notch by throwing a set of gold cutlery into the mix? It’s an instant pop of luxury that exudes warmth to traditional red and green themes. 🍴
 
#5 End with a Bang:
What’s a Christmas dinner without some good old-fashioned crackers? Sure to put a smile on anyone’s faces, they’ll also ensure your party goes out with a bang! 💫
