    What Our Students Are Saying

    My English class is very fun, I learnt a lot there. My favourite part of the programme is when we went to attractions in Singapore, they are all very amazing and very fun. My teacher’s name is Rodney. He is very kind, very funny and he speaks English very well. I learnt a lot from him. I learnt how to become more confident when I stand in front of a lot of people and how to use my body language better and how to describe things more clearly. I feel my public speaking has improved. Singapore is a nice country, very clean, people are friendly and very beautiful, I love it. On the first day I am not really close to anyone but in the tour I made a lot of friends. They want to play with me and it was fun.

    What Our Students Are Saying

    This programme has been quite interesting, especially for the possibility to see Singapore which was a city I have never been to and is quite diverse and full of amazing architectural buildings and constructions. Lessons have been quite interesting. It is interesting to meet people from such different backgrounds and from the real world.  After this programme I feel a bit more aware of the working environment and maybe where I’m going to work. People have been very open and interested to tell you their experience.

    What Our Students Are Saying

    We have been very happy with the way that the teacher engaged with our students and got them excited and interested in the environment. The students really enjoyed the experiments they did each day, I think this really helped them understand the concept of green technology better.

      I don’t have a credit card, can I pay in cash?
      We regret that we are only able to accept payment by Visa, Mastercard, American Express or telegraphic transfers. Please contact us if you wish to make a telegraphic transfer.
      Can I get a refund?
      If you are withdrawing from a programme 90 days before its commencement, you can get a full refund minus the administrative fees charged by the credit card company/bank. You will be allowed a refund of 50% for cancellations within 90 days, and no refunds will be allowed within 2 weeks from commencement.
      What is the minimum requirements to join the programme?
      Participants should be able to communicate in basic English and are able to move around easily within the campus. Note that some campuses are not wheelchair friendly. They should also have individual travel documents with at least 6 months validity, and possess the relevant visas for entry into the respective countries. Please see the country pages for more information.
      What is the average age of the participants?
      Our participants range from 7 to 18 years old, and we will pair them up by similar age and gender.
      What is the class size of Leadership & Public Speaking classes?
      Maximum class-size is 25 students in Singapore and Sydney camps, and 20 students in London camps.
      What safety measures does Bluesky practice?
      At every camp we will have at least one trained first aider who will be present on site and during all activities and excursions. In the dormitories, our staff conduct regular checks throughout the day and night, with a roll count in the morning and before lights out.
      Are the participants insured?
      BlueSky is insured by public liability insurance but for individual students they should purchase their own travel and medical insurance. A detailed policy schedule is available at https://www.bluesky-education.com/policy.html.
      What is your safety track record?
      In all our years of running programmes, we have never suffered a major incident. In the course of outdoor activities, our staff are trained in first aid and will always try to prevent accidents like knee scrapes and falls.
      Are students allowed to talk to parents during the camp?
      Yes, they are allowed to call parents during the evening before bed and if there is an emergency. We encourage both parents and students to not be in constant contact throughout the day as it is distracting from their lessons and activities.
      What if my child gets homesick?
      It's not unusual for children, especially younger ones away from home for the first time, to feel homesick the first few days. Most get over it quickly and go on to have a wonderful time. We provide structure and keep campers busy from the moment they arrive, which helps to shift their focus away from home to new friends and having fun. By the end of the first week, the routine is familiar and the homesickness has passed for the majority of campers.
      Will I receive a certificate at the end of the course?
      Yes, students will receive a certificate of completion if their attendance is at least 90% of classes. We require students to attend all classes, except due to health reasons.
      Where do students come from?
      Our students generally come from all over the world. Naturally, for Singapore and Australia camps, more students from the Asia Pacific region are expected due to their geographical locations.
      How many hours of lessons will there be?
      All courses will offer a minimum of 12 hours of cultural workshop lessons or Leadership and Public Speaking classes per week.
      Will Blue Sky Camp staff supervise students 24/7?

      What are camp attractions and excursions?
      We have a carefully selected list of attractions at destination cities to give students a chance to get to know the city, as well as to visit educational centres, historical monuments and museums. Visits to famous universities and college campuses have also inspired our students to strive for academic excellence.

Students are recommended to bring a hoodie or light jacket as classrooms are often air-conditioned and sometimes students may feel cold. Students are also recommended to bring comfortable walking shoes as students will do a lot of walking in destination cities. In an effort to reduce our carbon footprint we also ask students to bring refillable water bottles that they can carry with them on excursions. Our destination countries may have differently shaped power outlets and voltages than your home country. Students should bring a power adapter along with whatever other chargers or electronic devices they may need. We also recommend students to pack props which they may want to use in their Talent Show.
