Camp of English




We started the camp day at school,going by bus to Padise Manor. The guide told us about the history of the manor and the history of the monastery next to it. They are said to be haunted in both places.

This place is very beautiful, cozy and pleasant.
I like the peculiarity of this place.
We stayed on the first and second floor.

The rooms were different, some with one large bed, some with separate beds. Some rooms had a Whirlpool, but others had an ordinary shower.

 workshops.After that later we had to show the video about solving the situation.And then we had 
dinner and really creepy evening.About that,we called out the ghosts and stuff,some of us were really

English language camp by Cristiine and Reely

English language camp

We started the camp day at the school, going by bus to Padise Manor. 
The guide introduced the Manor of Padise Monastery and its surroundings and its history.
 I was very pleased with the presentation of the guide. Following his example, 
I learned that it is important to know the history and communication skills of people. 
At the end of the walk we headed to the manor. We got our rooms and packed the luggage. 
The rooms were really beautiful and luxurious. We put our stuff in the rooms and made the first pictures 
of the manor. Then we went to eat. Every day, the food was simply superb, praising the chef. After the 
meal Jukka introduced Pietiläinen manor.
The whole camp event was held in English. For the first day of the evening, we were given a group job, 
where we had to make a film about our profession. We conducted a video tutorial with our group on 
how to clean the room and toilet. At the end of the day, we sat with the girls and just talked. The second day
 we started at the forum theater at Vat Theater, after a workshop in Impresso Theater. In 
these workshops we solved various tasks, problems that may occur in the accommodation
 establishments. Everyone was very fun, we got a lot of laughs and teamwork again. In the evening we
 watched the videos made the previous day. The best video from our class was Mad Ivika. I liked all the
 videos because they were not just randomly assembled. After watching the videos, was there a big 
dispute about what kind of movie anyone wanted to watch? I gave up watching the movie and went to
 play the English alphabet. Some classmates wanted to learn more about the spirit of Padise Manor in
 the evening. He studied the spirit and tried to call him out. I didn't take part in it, we talked to the girls.
On the last day, The Game Club organized various English-language games that we all could play. 
The most interesting game I liked was one where one player saw a picture of different shapes. The 
player had to explain the picture to the other, the second player to the third, and the third player drew 
the thought on the paper as he understood. It was nice to do teamwork again and improve my English 
skills. At the end of the camp we had to perform an English-language test in the internet environment.
All in all, the camp was very nice. I got closer to my classmates and dared to ask for help if I didn't 
understand anything. I improved my knowledge of English and learned to solve different situations in 
my own specialty.

Language camp by Helsanna

Language camp

Monday (10.12)
The bus set off from the school car park at 8.30 and we arrived at Padise 
Manor around 10.00.
When we reached the Padise Manor we walked with the guide around the 
 manor and inside the house. (Guide was Heli Nuger)


At 11.00 we checked our rooms and unpacked our bags. 
My room was very beautiful and large. There was also a jacuzzi in the bathroom. 
The bedroom had a huge bed, a spacious closet and two large mirrors. Our room 
was on the second floor with two windows, one with a view to the abbey and the 
pond.
At 12.00 we ate lunch and after that Jukka Pietiläinen told us about the history 
of the manor, what it’s doing now and what customers mostly visit there.
We made a video about how room service shouldn't clean up rooms.  The 
video had to be 7 minutes long but ours was shorter. The best video was 
awarded a candy box and the winners were my classmates. We ate dinner and
after that we played Kahoot. We also played board games and group games. 
The winners had to put their hand in the bag and what they crabbed was their 
award. At 23.00 we all started to get ready for bed. The night was very scary 
because somebody had said that the mansion was haunted and every voice 
woke us up. We turned on the TV overnight to get a little better sleep.





Tuesday (11.12)
At 8.30 to 9.15 we had breakfast. We got to choose our food from the buffet. 
Breakfast was very delicious.
At 9.30 some famous actors from the Vat Theater came to do various activities 
with us. We communicated with a client on the phone, solved different problems 
and dealt with complaints. These activities were very cool and I got lots of new 
experiences.
At 11.00 - 11.30 we had a break. After that we switched the workrooms with 
another class.
At 13.00 to 14.00 we had lunch.
14.00 to 18.00 we watched the videos made on the first day and chose the 
best ones. The videos were very funny. And then we ate dinner.
After dinner we had a movie night. Others decided to watch horror films 
but I didn't watch them because I can’t sleep at night then. I was in my room 
for a while and then went to play card games with some friends. After that we 
all started to get ready for bed. Some of my classmates were also afraid to sleep 
in their room, so we decided to sleep all in one bed to have better sleep. At first 
we turned on the TV but turned it off because it wasn’t so scary to sleep with other
 people.





Wednesday (12.12)
At 8.30 to 9.15 we had breakfast.
The Game Club organized various games for us. The aim of the games was to 
develop our language skills, attentiveness and cooperation skills.
At the end of the camp we also did language tests. We packed our things and took
 a picture with all of the students and teachers.
We ate lunch.
At 13.00 we started driving back to the school.
The camp was very cool and instructive. I got a lot of new knowledge and 
developed my language skills.
I think they should do more them because it helps to develop the language and if 
there are problems with English these are very useful.

Thank you to the teacher and everyone who worked with us!
