Matthew had an absolute ball at camp this week. He loved the variety of the water equipment and how the indoor games were unusual (not ones he’d played before) and he has been busy folding many origami swans. He really loved it. It will be a difficult act to follow for the rest of the Summer!

“An amazing experience for my daughter! She loved the kayaking and came home talking about river creatures all week.The mix of water sports, crafts, and learning about nature was perfect — fun, safe, and educational.She made new friends, learned a ton, and couldn’t wait to come back the next day!

The biggest highlight for me was definitely our coaches, **Cáolan and Craig**. They were so friendly, patient and encouraging! Their enthusiasm and encouragement opened up a whole new world that I had never experienced before！I ended up discovering a new hobby and something I really enjoy, which made my summer so much more exciting and memorable. I enjoyed it so much that I joined the camp several times, and I would honestly recommend HQ2O，and I’ll definitely be back.XXX Niamh
