Healthy eating
We explore protein, fats and carbohydrates, balanced meals and eating around training. We discuss the energy in food and the needs of a growing, active body.
CRETE, GREECE · SUMMER 2027
Good habits stay
after summer.
Learning complements training. We explore food, movement and recovery through accessible examples from daily camp life.
CRETE CAMP / ACADEMY
TRAIN. UNDERSTAND. GROW.
CRETE CAMP / EVERYDAY
Learning to care
for ourselves and each other.
Setting the table, helping a friend, noticing when it is time to rest. Everyday moments with our counsellors help children build independence and care for others.
How the body works
Theory sessions cover muscles, metabolism, the role of hormones, workload and recovery. We explain why technique and rest belong to the result.
Knowledge in action
We connect wellbeing with routines, food, hydration and rest. Questions help build a thoughtful relationship with the body.
Helping in the kitchen
Children take turns assisting the cook with simple preparation tasks, setting tables and clearing up after meals. Tasks suit their age and are supervised by adults. It is a practical way to learn independence, responsibility and care for the group.
Energy, growth and training
We learn to read nutrition information and understand calories. We explore how the body uses energy, what muscles need to grow and how food, exercise and recovery connect.
Rest is part of progress.
Compulsory quiet time runs from 14:30 to 16:00 after lunch. We rest somewhere cool during the heat, then return to the pool and dryland activities. Food, water and sleep help everyone enjoy an active day.
