Summer and Winter Camps on the Gold Coast:

Photo of English Camps & Study Tours for Juniors in Australia• Since 1993, we have offered a wide range of summer and winter camp programs for students from 6 years of age to teenage students - plus their parents and grandparents.

• AICOL offers Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter English camps as well as year-round study tours for students from all over the world, including Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Russia, China, Hong Kong, Thailand, Spain, Tahiti, Argentina to name just a few.

• As we also offer registered courses for individual young students, this enables our programs to have meaningful learning content. All summer camp English classes are delivered by qualified teachers.

• Our summer and winter camps offer a perfect environment for students to learn English, and at the same time participate in a wide range of sporting and other activities.

• We offer many different types of program, which vary in length from just a week up to 10 weeks.

• The activities also vary according to the likes and dislikes of each country. For example, our Russian students love taking surfing lessons in the beautiful Pacific Ocean, whereas our Japanese students love visiting our farmstay to ride horses and be in touch with nature.

• Our most popular programs offer English classes each morning, and activities each afternoon, with a full day activity on the weekends. 

• More academic programs, which tend to be favoured by mainland Chinese groups, focus on full-time English during the week, followed by full day theme park visits on the weekends.

• AICOL is now also a recognized school by Bildungsurlaub in Germany for approved educational travel.

Testimonials from Parents & Students:

•  "My 8-Year-old son and I took a course. The children's English course is a lesson to incorporate activities so that children don't get tired of them. My class was a lesson to each English level filled with academic intellectual curiosity. One of the most fascinating things to learn in the same campus in parent-child, brother, and family. A very great school, including a lecturer who also supports IELTS preparation and more.

The principal and the staff and the staff are very good and really recommended school. Thank you very much for your help. Thank you very much."

•  "Hi Garth,
I have finished three weeks of English study in your school. My experience has been very good. My daughters have been four weeks and will be for another week.

I studied English in six different countries and I must say that your school is the best I've ever been. I am a high school teacher in my country and I value your work.

My daughters have learned a lot. The teachers are very good. Laura is in the class of Brendan. A great teacher. Laura has managed to speak English and work hard every day.

Jamice professor Paula is a very energetic person and a great professional. And John my teacher always has a kind word for each of their students and a great knowledge of the different cultures of their students.

Thank you very much to all. I have to thank you also that in recent weeks we find a new apartment where we have been very good."

Homestay Testimonial: 

"No I mean it Garth, I  have been with a lot of different agents but AICOL is really the best, not the best pay, but the best organised, and that is what I like. It is not always about money, but I  love how it is run.

The children are always so lovely from AICOL - so far I had Chinese, Korean, Russian, and Japanese. I just love what you do for these children.

They are so happy to come to Australia what a great experience for them they will never forget that (my last two were 9 and ten, so brave and polite). They cried when they left and so did I... Keep up the good work!"
