Summer Junior Programme

Summer, sun and language course: create unforgettable moments for your children with the junior programme of the Academy of Languages.

Every year, children from six to 15 years of age from over 90 nations find their way to Heidelberg to not only learn German or English in age-appropriate lessons at the Heidelberg language school, but also to make new friends and spend the summer holidays together with children from all corners of the world.

After the language course, there is a balanced and varied lunch in the canteen before the colourful leisure programme begins: Excursions to the museum are also part of the programme, as are hikes, boat trips or creative workshops.
