COMING FROM ABROAD

Do you want your son/daughter to...

• improve their English?
• experience a beautiful English city?
• make lifelong friends?
• explore and develop their faith?

Ripon’s your place!

Over the years, we have loved welcoming young people from lots of different countries, including Germany, Spain, France, Lebanon, and even Japan! We enjoy having people from other countries with us, and they form a really important part of our community.

Ripon – a city of Ancient Charms
Ripon is a fantastic place to discover all things English.  It is a small, friendly city that is enjoyed by many tourists, and has an ancient Cathedral, picturesque city square, and is set in some beautiful countryside. 

Ripon – total immersion in English language and Culture
They will be completely immersed in conversational English and culture that will cover so many everyday topics that their English will improve significantly!  They will also get to visit the local city (Ripon) as well as a theme park and many other exciting activities, whilst at the same time exploring and developing their faith.

Ripon – lifelong friends and great community
The great thing about Ripon is that your son or daughter will be joining other English children enjoying their summer holiday.  This means that unlike an English Summer Schools where most people are from abroad, here your son & daughter will make English friends that will last beyond the holiday.  This will help to keep their English going and will also allow their English friends to learn more about different cultures and places. 
Many people return year after year, forming genuine life-long friendships. Some even stay on to become part of the Leadership team when they get old enough!
​
Ripon – easy to get to
We can pick up your son or daughter from Leeds/Bradford Airport, or from York Station which is linked to all the major cities such as Manchester, Birmingham or London. 
We usually pick up about 20 people at York Station who travel up from the south of England, so we are quite used to it!

FAQ:
Do you have leaders who speak other languages?
We usually have leaders who speak German, French and Spanish, but if your son or daughter would need support in another language we could see if that is covered by our leaders too. 
How does it work in terms of insurance?
All our holidays are fully insured in the UK by Ventures.  However, you might want to consider ensuring that you have travel insurance for any unexpected health or travel expenses whilst in the UK.
