Holiday Camps

Schloss Leizen hosts international holiday camps! Healthy, organic meals and premium accommodation in our elegant manor house perfectly prepare kids for active days full of games, fun, discovery and exploration.

We have prepared 8 camp themes for you and we are confident that one of the programs will be a perfect fit for your child.

Find yourself and unleash your potential!

In the rapidly changing modern world, even adults find it challenging to keep up with new trends and innovations. Since children also have to pay attention to their own development, they often find themselves overwhelmed.

In our camp, we help children discover themselves by offering a variety of workshops and seminars within a week, allowing each child to explore different roles and identify their strengths and weaknesses.

Immerse yourself in the fascinating world of artificial intelligence and new technologies! During interactive sessions, we learn to analyze texts, create images, and compose music. After the sessions, we discuss the role of artificial intelligence in society, exploring the pros and cons of this emerging technology together.

Beyond technical skills, it's crucial for us to show children that work can be diverse. We cook together and create things with our hands daily. From soups to desserts, your child will learn to cook their favorite dishes and delight you with culinary successes at home.

In order to build awareness around their newly learned skills, we discuss current topics together and learn to express opinions respectfully while listening to others in a friendly and safe atmosphere.

Our famous cooking workshops are a must for our every guest. So far, we have not encountered a child who would not be eager to cook and thereby learn about the essentials of healthy cooking, compositions and benefits of produce as well as efficient ways to peel and cut fruits and vegetables.

And we always find time for routines like morning sports, bed making and clothes management. These train our patience and discipline.

Bring your child to Schloss Leizen, and gift them a week of developing valuable life skills and making new friendships.

Basketball Camp

Is your child into basketball professionally, looking to start, or simply loves the game?

Regardless of the initial skill level, we can enhance their abilities and take their understanding of the game to new heights!

Our experienced coaches, like no other, know the path from a beginner to a skilled professional and are ready to share their expertise, helping children learn from mistakes that could otherwise hinder development and progress.

We offer an intensive week-long training course. Each day, sessions take place on our high-quality outdoor court at the Stuer estate. With two training sessions per day and a personalized approach, there's an opportunity to improve both technical and tactical skills. Additionally, coaches group children together based on areas where they need improvement.

Rain and wind outside? That's not a problem for us! A professional sports hall, just a 10-minute drive from home, is also available for us to use.

Except for exercise, what else is vital for young and old athletes alike? Apart from sleep?

Of course, it's nutrition!

Thanks to all the food on our estate being prepared according to bio standards, with vegetables grown our own farm, each child maintains a healthy balance of fats, proteins, and carbohydrates—essential for achieving the highest sports goals:)

Nature and Animals

Discover the world of nature at its best!

Every day brings a new experience! During our bike tours and hikes, we explore the diverse nature of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania in all its manifestations. Our night sky won't leave anyone without a face of amazement and astonishment. Far away from city lights, our estate offers an incredible view of the Milky Way at night. Sitting by the campfire, you can even witness the beautiful shimmering of the Milky Way.

For animal enthusiasts, we provide numerous opportunities to explore local, but also unexpected animals. We start our journey on a real farm, home to cows, horses, and sheep. Children learn about their lives, discover interesting facts about caring for animals, and the overlooked impact these animals have on city life.

In the natural park "Bärenwald," mighty bears live in their natural habitat. Yet, a couple kilometeres away, monkeys leap among the trees In the Malchower "Affenwald" park. And if you’re more interested in plants, in the Ivenacker Eichen Park stand trees which a whole family of four wouldn’t be able to hug without letting go of each other!

And the real learning goes beyond the classroom. What we learn in sessions is immediately applied by the children in their daily lives. With numerous seminars and excursions, everyone has the opportunity to use acquired skills in practice. This way, we not only teach German but also practice it in various life situations.

Interacting with like-minded individuals from different countries not only broadens your horizons but also allows for an authentic application of acquired language skills. Through shared activities and projects, intercultural experiences emerge, enriching the language-learning process.

Our approach is not only to teach you the language but also to instill the confidence to actively use it. In dynamic and diverse learning sessions, we employ modern teaching methods that further character development as much as they increase capabilities.

Sustainable learning extends beyond the classroom — what you work on in class, you apply directly to your daily life in the camp, during fun activities that aren’t directly related to English lessons. Thus, English is not just heard and spoken but lived!
