What a wild and wonderful ride our summer camps have been! From moments of madness to bouts of chaos, we’ve packed every day with laughter, fun, and adventure. But most importantly, we created magical moments and built friendships that we hope will last a lifetime🤎

Our campers took on every challenge with a smile, and together, we made memories that will stay with us forever. Thank you to everyone who joined us on this amazing adventure we can’t wait to see you again in October🙂

What are summers for?

This kind of stuff. These memories of building, creating, playing, and making friends are now hardwired into these talented boys🌱

We love watching branches and twigs transform into dens and a safe place for laughter and adventure🌿

Joy and Finlay didn't know each other before camp, but now they're best of friends! They've even dubbed themselves 'the Laughables' because all they do is laugh together😊

It's a great reminder for all of us to be more like children and just play and laugh. We love seeing friendships grow and blossom on our camps🌱

'Hagrids Den' featured .college as Hogwarts was inspired by the iconic location, according to the talented boys Oscar, Nico, and Solomon🌱

Last week, we had an amazing time visiting Mrs. McDonald's Primary 7 class in Haddington! They were the lucky winners of our ice cream flavour competition, open to all schools across East Lothian. 🌱

Fraser wowed us with his Toffee Popcorn creation, earning his class a morning filled with outdoor activities provided by us. The Lucas team was there to scoop out the winning flavour for all four P7 classes as a special treat! 🍦

We had an absolute blast and wanted to thank everyone who participated. Keep an eye on page—you might just see Fraser's winning flavour (Frasers Toffee Popcorn) on their specials menu soon! 👀🍿
