Living the Language

English and French are the shared languages of communication in Surval. All Summer Campers take part in daily French or English language tuition classes delivered by qualified language teachers. We emphasise living the language, and lessons are known to move from the classroom into town in order to practise newfound language skills in authentic situations.
