Barracudas is an exceptional summer camp that provided my son with an action-packed, unforgettable week. The wide range of activities kept him engaged and excited every day, helping him develop confidence in a supportive environment. The camp is well-organized and the staff are fantastic, ensuring a safe and fun experience for all the kids. I’d confidently rate Barracudas a 10 out of 10 and highly recommend it to parents looking for a dynamic and well-run camp. My son can't wait to go back next summer!
My kids attended Barracudas Bishop’s Stortford for 3 weeks this summer holiday. This is the 3rd year for them and they still absolutely loved it. There were a great range of activities, sports, art and craft, swimming, drama etc, both of my kids can find their favourite activities. Everyday they got back home bubbling after such a fun day. The camp was very well managed, and the staff were friendly and helpful. Any concerns and problems were immediately addressed and resolved. I’d highly recommend it to anyone
I recently enrolled my child in Barracudas Summer Camp, and I am genuinely impressed how fantastic it was.Here are some of our insights:Warm Welcome: On the first day before arrival, my child was a bit nervous (although normally a confident boy), but the team at Barracudas made sure he felt right at home and his nerves went away before I even left reception. The Milton Keynes Barracudas team has a friendly and inviting approach which helped my child quickly settle in and find his groove quickly.Activity Variety: The camp offers an impressive range of activities. Children get to choose between two activities six times a day. I like this and haven’t seen it at other camps. This variety keeps them engaged, happy, and in control of their experience which is important.MK Team Go Above and Beyond: For example with face painting, it’s not just your typical face painting. When my child wanted to be a t racer character - a race car driver, the team accommodated their imagination. They really get to know your child’s passions and I find my son is really happy that he can share this with the team. He loves his little chats with them all. It’s these little touches that make Barracudas stand out for me even though my son wanted to sleep in his face paints he loved it so much I was really pleased his imagination was extended and interests were accommodated. I have been truly impressed with all team members. Good energy, great with the children and understanding and helpful to parents too.Role Play Areas: For younger kids, there are areas for role play, including doctors’ offices, math corners, healthy eating charts, Barracuda Agreements such as be kind etc and reading nooks. It’s a great way to encourage creativity and learning. I am not sure if it is the same for the older kids.Security Measures: Barracudas takes safety seriously. Although the team recognises the parents and chats with you on arrival they still respect safety and that’s very reassuring. The QR codes for check-in and check-out are never waived and this provides peace of mind for parents and the time options and full days are very helpful too.Happy Stories: My child came back from camp with a big smile and lots of exciting stories to share. He even asked his school friend to join him one day and he did. From Motorsports to WaterPlay and Bouncy Castles and Dance he did something different all the time. On a Friday your children even get to throw a sponge at a team member for charity. It’s optional but a great cause.My only wish as a busy mum, is that Barracudas MK offered camps during half terms too and or longer summer camps. But I’m hopeful they’ll consider it in the future. Overall, Barracudas Milton Keynes Summer Camp is a winner, and I highly recommend it to other parents.
Chichester Campus was recommended by my colleague. I thought i would give it a go as was looking for childcare during the summer. It was fantastic experience, my daughter loved it. Staff is very friendly, lots of passionate people. Lots of different activities during the day, swimming almost everyday which my daughter loved. Thank you
Barracudas Colchester is my daughter's favourite camp (she has attended a few others locally in the past two years), and I'm not surprised, the activities were exciting and varied, not run-of-the-mill at all ("Mum, I did motorsport!" - quad biking). I have also been really impressed with the friendliness and professionalism of the staff. Most notably, I was impressed with how quickly they put out a communication to reassure parents about their safeguarding procedures, and implemented extra staff training before the next day's session, after the horrific news from Southport.
My son attended Barracudas Activity Camp at Twickenham (London) for a week. He is from Spain and it was his very first time in a full English camp. The very first day he told me he didn’t understand anything (even if his second language in school is English). The second day we spoke to the monitors and they were extra nice to him. He came out rating his day for 9.25/10. On Friday he said it was amazing and rated it with a 9.99/10. Thanks so mucho for everything! This camp is very good organized, fun for kids and reliable for parents! Gracias!
Romford Barracudas was absolutely amazing this year! My daughter attended every day for the whole 4 weeks and she is still talking about what a great time she had (and singing songs from Mamma Mia!) We will definitely book again. Thank you everyone for making this summer so enjoyable 😀
My son has now attended the Easter and Summer camp at Hemel Hempstead school and on his very first day i was so anxious as my son doesn’t usually warm to these kinds of things. However at the end of his first day he said he has the best time. I cannot express how good the Hemel camp is, the staff are so good, reallly friendly and they run really good activities. My son feels well respected and looked after.
