Fun evening events:
- “Let's Meet Up!” 1800-2030 (every Wednesday)

Lessons
You'll have lessons every weekday which will help you improve your English in a way you can't do at home - you will work on Speaking, Listening, developing your Vocabulary and general confidence.
Activities/Work Experience
Activities (Juniors) or Work Experience (Young Adults)
After lunch, you have a choice of two activities each day.
Option 1 is a sports/physical activity, such as swimming. Option 2 is a brain activity but outside of the classroom, or an excursion.
Nearly all activities take place locally in Winchester, but each week, there is an excursion "out-of-town" by coach, bus or train.
The list of activities shown is by way of example.

Work experience
Students aged 16+ can take part in work experience instead of activities. This gives you a great opportunity to get to know even more English people and practise your English in a working context. Work experience is of a general nature - shops, cafes, small offices. The number of placements is limited - so please book early to reserve your work experience place!
Fun evening events
“Let’s meet up!”
When you attend our summer school you will feel part of Winchester, completely integrated into the Winchester community!
You will enjoy our weekly “Let’s meet up!” evenings, usually on Wednesdays, which are a great opportunity for you to get together and have fun, with your fellow students and local English people.
Enjoy the beautiful, long English summer evenings in good company! The sessions take place from 1800-2030.
Friday night party
Every Friday night we get everyone together - "Pizza in the Park", or a disco/karaoke or just a party party!
