New this summer! Check out the Surfskate and Parkour camps!!!
We will open CCA Registration for Summer camps from Thursday, June 1st at 6:00pm until Thursday, June 15th at 12:00pm. After that time, it will not be possible to add any students to any sports camp program or switch the program.
Camp dates are on Monday to Friday for the following period:
- June 19 – July 7, 2023
Transition
Campers who are currently G1 and Under will be required to have parents, guardians or nannies to be responsible for the camp transition during camps. No transportation, lunch or snacks are provided during camp. Please have kids bring their own water bottle. We no longer provide the paper cups on campus.
Refunds for camp
The reason we would consider a refund is:
- Your child has a medical issue that requires them to stop an activity (documentation is required).
Note:
If the number of students who sign up for summer camp is less than the minimum requirement, the program will be canceled, with refunds issued.
For questions about Panther Activities please contact Khun Bee at panchary@isb.ac.th. For questions about Panther Athletics please contact Khun Fon at punnanuw@isb.ac.th or Khun Ning at walleeb@isb.ac.th.
