Children

Camping under the stars, cooking pancakes over the fire, gathering wood, meeting new friends, playing outdoors in all weathers, braving the compost loos, or enjoying an elemental shower — these are just some of the simple joys that children love at Sacred Arts Camp.

While parents and carers take time for well-earned rest and rejuvenation, there is plenty for children to enjoy throughout the day.
Each morning and afternoon, a variety of workshops take place in and around the Creativity Tent, supported by friendly helpers. Activities change from year to year but often include things like candle dipping, tie-dyeing, book-making, whittling, hula hooping, forest crafts, recycled art, and drama.

We also offer a welcoming space for under-5s, where little ones can explore with their parents or carers. This area is open at all times, stocked with toys, books, and materials, and the under-5s team provide timetabled activities every day.

Teens

Teenagers at Sacred Arts Camp can expect a wide range of inspiring, creative, and
enjoyable experiences.

Young adults aged 16–19 may camp in the designated young adults’ area.
Teens under 16 are NOT permitted to camp there, and all young people under 18 remain the responsibility of their parents or guardians, regardless of where they choose to sleep.

Together with the teen team young people collaboratively create a timetable of activities which reflect their interests - including workshops, creative projects, and social spaces, great opportunities for building confidence, making friends, and exploring life in a supportive environment.
Older teens often look out for younger ones, helping create a space where age matters less and community matters more. 

Younger teens often form their own “satellite” circles alongside their parents’ circles.
This gives them a sense of independence while still offering the safety and connection of being close to family.

Tweens

For those under 14, there are special activities designed to bring younger and older
teens together. Workshops in the teen space may be open to them at selected times, and regular hot chocolate nights offer relaxed opportunities for chatting, asking
questions, and learning from older peers.

A range of field games—such as Capture the Flag, Dodgeball, and Football—take place on sunnier days and are always popular. And when the weather is uncooperative, the Table Tennis Tent is a lively spot for games and socialising.

Young people of all ages will find Sacred Arts Camp a warm, friendly place to make
friends, join in workshops, create, grow, and explore.
