We are delighted with the Children's Club on the QM2 and has been a major success story both in terms of the staff and programme. I think it is fair to say everyone at King’s has done an outstanding job in making this work so well

Our Ethos
Perhaps your child is a future gold medal winner, or perhaps it's the taking part that counts, whatever their aim in sport, we are committed to helping them reach their potential when they attend a King's Camps summer camp.
We know that for some children sport can be intimidating, whilst for other children sport is where they are most confident and happy. It is our priority to ensure that every child is made to feel unique and valued. King's Camps summer camps and activity day camps help children to gain self-confidence and social skills through age-sensitive programmes that encourage and inspire them.
It's also great to know that simply by having fun at our summer camps and activity day camps, your children are easily achieving the government's aim for school children of two hours exercise per week. We also promote healthy living on camps by encouraging everyone to bring healthy packed lunches and running National Healthy Lifestyle days.
