Are you looking for ways to keep your child entertained during the school holidays?
Loretto School hosts holiday camps over the Easter and summer break. Located just a 20-minute drive from Edinburgh city centre, the school’s campus is ideally positioned for families living in East Lothian and Edinburgh.
There are several advantages of enrolling your child in an activity camp – from discovering new talents to creating lifelong memories. Read on to discover more.
Discover new interests
Activity camps are one of the best ways for young people to try something new and explore their interests. Whether your child is creative, sporty, or looking to expand their sense of adventure, there’s a Loretto Activity Camp to suit a range of interests. The school’s 2026 programme includes:
- Acrobatics
- Art and Dance
- Girls’ Sport
- Hockey
- Musical Theatre
- Rugby
- Volunteering and Adventure Sport
A supportive and playful environment is fostered, and children are supported to take a step outside of their comfort zone each day, with expert coaches and specialist teachers providing encouragement and care. Whilst camp attendees broaden their horizons, their confidence is likely to develop as a result too.
Flexibility for families
It can be a challenge to keep children entertained throughout the holidays, especially when other day-to-day commitments continue. This is where activity camps are especially helpful – providing structure and a positive routine to families during the holiday period. Camps remove the pressure on parents, keeping children entertained with engaging activities and a routine that somewhat reflects a typical day during term time.
Loretto’s school holiday camps run from 9:00am to 4:00pm, aligning with working hours. You can be sure that your child is in expert care, being supported to develop mentally and physically, and – when home time arrives – they’ll feel fulfilled and eager to share all about their day.
Create lasting memories
Some of your child’s fondest moments may come from their time at a holiday camp.
Whether it’s exploring the school’s leafy, 85-acre campus, set just outside Edinburgh, forming friendships, or discovering and developing their talents, there’s plenty of opportunities for memories to be made, children to feel proud, and their confidence to be shaped.
