Our Supervision Concept
Your safety and welfare are very important to us. The supervision concept in our summer programme is based on a fixed activity programme during afternoons and evenings which every student is required to attend. In our daily „Time to Talk“-meetings we meet with students in small groups to get feedback from them about their experience in the camp.
Our staff ratio on campus for the age group 10-12 years is 1:10, however supervision groups during activities on or off campus will have different ratios of up to 15 students for students aged 10-12 depending on the situation.
10 to 12 year olds
Our youngest students are supervised more thoroughly by team members specifically trained for this task. The staff ratio for this age group is 1:10. They are required to take part in the activity programme and attendance is checked at the beginning of each activity. They are not allowed to leave the campus without supervision. It is not possible for parents to give their child permission to leave the campus without supervision.
Ebernburg is also available for teenagers aged 13 -16. Click here for more details.
Time to Talk
“Time to Talk” in Ebernburg takes place once a day between dinner and the beginning of the evening event. Groups of up to 15 students meet with the same Team member every day. “Time to Talk” is a safe environment where students can give feedback on the activities of the day and their experiences in the camp. “Time to talk” usually takes place in the language the student is learning, however it is sometimes necessary to let the students speak in their native language, depending on their language abilities in the foreign language.
