Registrations are now open for the Champittet Leadership Camp 2027, offering young people from around the world a summer of growth, friendship and discovery in Switzerland. Organised by 瑞士尚贝缇国际学校, the camp welcomes campers into one of three age-appropriate summer programmes: Juniors (ages 10 to 12), Teens (ages 13 to 14) and Seniors (ages 15 to 17). The 2026 edition of the camp gave participants an unforgettable Swiss summer. From sailing on Lake Geneva and spending the night at a mountain refuge at Lac de Taney to crossing the Peak Walk suspension bridge at Glacier 3000 and tackling tree-top adventure courses, campers explored some of Switzerland's most spectacular landscapes while testing their own physical and mental limits. With leadership at its core, the summer camp also gave participants countless opportunities to build confidence, develop new skills and learn more about themselves and others. At the Olympic Museum in Lausanne, campers met Olympic athletes and discovered the importance of ambition, resilience and perseverance. At EHL, they donned their chef hats for a Master Chef Challenge, flexing their creativity, communication and problem-solving muscles. From developing their own restaurant concepts in teams to practising public speaking and business etiquette, campers gained valuable experience and skills that extend far beyond the classroom. Just as importantly, the leadership camp brought together young people from around the world, fostering new friendships and lasting memories over campfire evenings, disco nights, talent shows and shared adventures.
It is not too early for families to think about plans for next summer. The next Champittet Leadership Camp will take place across two sessions: 5 to 18 July 2027 and 19 July to 1 August 2027, with both residential and day camp options available. This structure allows families to choose the format that best suits their child's needs, whether they prefer a fully immersive residential experience or a day camp arrangement. The camp's emphasis on leadership development, outdoor adventure and international friendship makes it a compelling option for parents seeking a meaningful summer experience for their children. Interested families can register and learn more by visiting the Champittet Leadership Camp website. The programme's combination of physical challenges, skill-building workshops and social activities reflects a holistic approach to youth development that aligns with the values of a well-rounded education. With limited places likely to be in demand, early registration is encouraged to secure a spot in one of the three age-appropriate programmes. The camp represents an opportunity for young people to step outside their comfort zones, build resilience and return home with new confidence, new skills and new friends from around the world.
