Canoe Island French Camp

Canoe Island French Camp

Canoe Island French Camp is a language immersion haven, catering to children with varying levels of French proficiency. With classes taught by skilled native French instructors and fluent American instructors, campers receive personalized attention in groups of 6-10. The intimate setting allows them to thrive in their language abilities.

The camp is more than just a language program; it offers the full experience of a traditional summer camp. Surrounded by the picturesque beauty of Puget Sound, Canoe Island serves as a private retreat, exclusively for campers and staff. The campers enjoy the freedom of choosing their activities, making new friends and fostering camaraderie while sharing canvas tents with a counselor and four other peers. This setting allows them to cultivate self-reliance and self-awareness, two essential traits that go beyond language proficiency.

Moreover, Canoe Island French Camp prides itself on its cultural exchange aspect. The diverse counselor team, many hailing from France or other French-speaking countries, provides insights into their heritage, culinary delights, and history. These interactions offer campers a well-rounded cultural experience, enriching their understanding of the French language and the wider francophone world. The camp's unique blend of language learning, outdoor adventures, and cultural exchange creates an unforgettable and transformative experience for every child who steps onto its shores.
