English camp for 5-9 year olds

We will be exploring phonetics over three days, with the aim of getting our children to recognize key sounds.

Through creative activities, the children will start to use the phonetics, that come from specific stories, either from the heart of England or the African savanna.

Through learning the "You're welcome" song ("Vaiana" film), we'll use key expressions for conversation, and on the last day, we'll give a performance to the parents.
