April and May 2026 Children Camps @ Learning Village Bwejuu, Zanzibar

How our Camps work

  1. Sleepover Camp or Day-Camp with Shuttle Bus
    We offer it both. Parents can choose whether you want your child to sleep at home or at camp. Minimum age for sleeping at camp is 7 years. View our Night Campus

    During Registration, Campers list their course preferences. Based on these, they will be assigned two Courses for the duration of the camp. In case a camper visits more than one camp, they choose different courses each camp so that the camp stays interesting. View our Courses
  3. Choose Evening Activities ad hoc
    We offer a variety of optional Evening Activities at camp. Campers can choose to either relax, just spend time with their friends, or attend the Evening Activities. View our Evening Activities

Evening Activities at Camp

we offer a variety of optional Evening Activities at camp. Campers can choose to either relax, just spend time with their friends, or attend the Evening Activities.

Capture The Flag

________________________________
Capture the flag is a terrain game played in teams. Players need to cooperate and organize themselves to perform coordinated operations in a vast terrain.

Treasure Hunt

________________________________
Campers solve riddles within the vast campus to find out where the next clue is. Campers must work in a team to solve them all

Trade Game

________________________________
Have you ever tried to trade? In this real time game, you will produce stone, wood, or food and trade it with your friends. Make sure to negotiate hard to get a good price for your goods. This is a real time trading game for 12 to 32 players

Werewolf

________________________________
although known by different names in different countries (e.g. Werewolf in Germany, Mafia in Russia, Ktulu in Poland, etc.) - this game always has the same structure: two teams with hidden identity compete by trying to find out who is in the other team

Stratego Terrain Game

________________________________
“Stratego the Terrain Game EE” is a real-time outdoor strategy game. Each team member must master its secret role as well as team communication and planning skills, since the available information increases as the game develops. An insane and unique mix of strategy, bluffs, teamwork and “capture the flag”.

No Need for Talent Show

________________________________
This is an opportunity for campers to present a particular skill or talent of theirs in front of the audience. This will boost their self- confidence and make them more comfortable of holding presentations. It's called "No Need for Talent Show" because you don't need a Talent to present anything.

Super Secret Surprise Game

________________________________
in this game, some players know the rules, whilst others don't. The players who don't know the rules ask the others yes/no questions. Somehow the answers don't seem to make any sense at first, until you recognize the pattern.
