Review 2025

An unforgettable summer full of adventures

From blacksmithing and archery to our evenings together around the campfire, Summer Camp 2025 was a week full of experiences, courage, community and lots of heart for both children and staff.
Here we take you on a journey through our fondest memories.

Our highlights at a glance

archery

The children learnt the basics of archery with a lot of patience and concentration. The progress they made was impressive - and the team spirit when practising together even more so.

Tent city & nature experiences

Our little tent camp quickly became a place of togetherness.
Here, people played, laughed, told stories – and sometimes even got a little spooked.
Pure adventure!

Our creative workshop

Even outside of the major activities, the children were able to give free rein to their creativity in various workshops. Pottery, sewing and cooking resulted in small works of art and shared moments of enjoyment.
The children also enthusiastically built their own swords and shields, designed Celtic jewellery and learned about different craft techniques.
A colourful mix of creativity, skill and lots of fun!

Closing party

On the last day, we celebrated together with parents, supporters and the entire team.
There were games, performances and lots of happy faces – a perfect end to a special week.
