The perfect summer camp
Camp St Mary’s London, or CSM for short, is the new English language summer camp, run by St Mary’s University, offered to young students around the world.
Established in 1850, and located in a prime suburb of London, St Mary’s University, set amongst green fields and the historic Strawberry Hill Castle and a short walk to the river Thames, is, quite simply, the perfect place for a summer camp for teenagers.
A campus with a capacity of around 350 students, which has everything in one location: accommodation, classrooms, catering, sports facilities and less than a 10-minute walk to the train station which takes students to central London in 35 minutes, located in the safest borough in London: Richmond-Upon-Thames.
Three reasons to choose us
Safety
St Mary’s University is in the safest London borough, and has featured consistently in the top three safest boroughs over the past few years
Education
A new, innovative curriculum has been designed to capitalise on students’ future aspirations, both personal and professional
Excitement
Full day excursions to all the main sights in London will give students lasting memories, cultural insights and fun selfies to share with family and friends!
To summarise, Camp St Mary’s (CSM) offers a comprehensive, all-inclusive package with nothing more to spend other than personal spending. Book and pay, we do the rest.
Our vision of the perfect summer camp
While CSM incorporates the mission, vision and values of St Mary’s University, CSM’s own mission, vision and values are:
CSM mission
To provide teenagers with a dynamic and immersive summer camp experience in London, in a safe environment, where they can develop their English language skills, build confidence, and connect with international peers, while exploring British culture through engaging activities, real-life communication, and unforgettable city adventures.
CSM vision
To become a leading international summer camp in London, inspiring its students to communicate confidently, embrace cultural diversity, and grow into curious, globally minded individuals through meaningful language immersion and real-world experiences.
CSM values
- Trust – the most important aspect when looking after other people’s children.
- Empathy – we can only serve students if we have an idea of what the student wants and needs.
- Future – an investment requires a lasting outcome and students will learn a host of life skills they can take into all aspects of their lives moving forward.
“I have been in the summer camp industry for over 20 years in a variety of roles from Teacher to Chief Operating Officer. I am passionate about making the 'once-in-a-lifetime' experience for teenagers on a summer language travel holiday, both unforgettable and life-enhancing.”
