Welcome to our international pages. On these pages you will find details of international camps and opportunities that are available. We are proud of our international record with lots of groups having experienced an international experience at some stage. We do want to see more groups going on these wonderful visits so if you are thinking about a trip abroad but are not sure, please contact me and discuss it with us.
If you have had a trip abroad please let me know so we can tell others about the fun you had or if you know of an event abroad that we have not listed let s know and we can add that to the list. |
