CAMPS’ AIM?
The main aim of the camp is to provide our children with a variety of cultural and English-speaking experience, filled with a range of both educational and fun activities which – together with your input – will leave them with a life-long love of the English language.

Every year we create environment where children can get to know a culture of one English speaking country. In 2023 it is going to be New Zealand in Latvia! Please, get it right. The internship is in Latvia, but as if we are in New Zealand!

We have been cooperating with Erasmus interns since 2013 and we have had the honour to meet young people from all over the world, including Europe, China, Inonesia and even Canada and Australia. For staff reviews, see here: https://nometnesberniem.lv/en/reviews/

WHO’S TAKING PART IN OUR CAMPS?
50 children aged from 8-12 in each of our weekly camps, in addition to our staff and fellow volunteers. Most of the children speak Latvian as their native language, however they are all able to communicate in English on at least a basic level. All the same, they will be at the camp to practice their English as much as possible. As an intren, no knowledge of the Latvian language is required!
