Summer camp Animator

At Beau Soleil, our Summer Camp is huge fun!  We welcome children aged 7 to 17 from around the world to an exceptional environment where they are challenged, encouraged and supported through a wide range of activities and experiences.  The Beau Soleil Summer camp is the experience of a lifetime where international friendships are born and participant’s self-confidence is developed.

Key to our success are the people we employ!  Our summer camp staff are enthusiastic, happy, motivated and above all have a desire to share their spirit of fun with the children at camp.  Animators lead and share with children a huge variety of carefully planned activities and coaching sessions, all set in the spectacular surroundings of the Swiss Alps.

Our animators are role models for our campers, creating a friendly, warm and safe environment at camp and contributing their energy and sense of fun to ensure a happy and energetic atmosphere.
