OUR ATLAS VALUES...

At Atlas Camps, our values shape everything we do, ensuring a safe, fun and enriching experience for every child in our care. We encourage kindness, respect and teamwork, fostering an environment where children can grow in confidence, embrace new challenges and support one another—both at camp and beyond. Our All-Stars are given a values booklet each day at camp, encouraged to achieve stickers for demonstrating their dedication to them!

HONESTY

Be honest with our words and actions, and have the confidence to know that being truthful in our dealings with others is always the best way to be.

KINDNESS

Demonstrate kindness in our interactions with our fellow campers and coaches wherever we can, going above and beyond to treat others with empathy and care.

PERSEVERANCE

Never give up when faced with a challenge, no matter how big or small!

RESPECT

Treat all others with the utmost of respect at all times, as well as the venues and equipment we enjoy.

TEAMWORK

Teamwork makes the dream work! Work together to achieve any challenge and have the confidence to know that, together, anything is possible.

FUN FOR EVERYONE THIS MAY

At Atlas Camps, we are firm believers in fun for all! We wanted to create camps in May that offered children of all ages the chance to come along during the school holidays and spend their days doing activities that they love, without being pigeonholed to a particular sport or interest. So that's exactly what we've done, offering fun-filled multi-activity camps for children aged 3 to 14 where everyone's needs are tended to.

From our carefully designed Early Years activities for our youngest campers to exciting challenges and activities for older children, we create an environment where everyone feels included, engaged and excited to take part. With friendly, experienced staff on hand to support every child, we help build confidence, independence and friendships that last beyond the May camp itself.

What truly makes Atlas Camps special is the freedom of choice we offer. With a huge variety of activities available every day—from sports, arts and crafts, to team games and imaginative play—children can decide what they want to do, ensuring they're always engaged in something they love. Whether they're looking to burn off energy in an action-packed game, explore their creativity, or try something new, there's always an option to suit them at our May camps.

SMARTPHONE FREE HOLIDAY CAMPS

We're very proud to support the smartphone-free schools movement and, as a result, each of our May camp settings are smartphone-free zones! In a move welcomed by our parents and caregivers, no child in our care is able to have access to a smartphone or data-enabled device during the camp day.

With safety of our children at the forefront of this decision, we also feel passionately about the benefits of a smartphone-free childhood wherever possible, limiting screen time for our All-Stars during the day, allowing us all to be present with one another and - above all - protecting them from the potential dangers of the internet and social media.
