"THE CASTLE OF FORMANOIR"
My experience at Formanoir with VSF was awesome! I made so many great friends and I had a chance to really improve my French.
The Castle is really beautiful and holds so much history, I loved hearing these stories!
The camp counselors were fun and easy going, they were eager to help and explain when I didn’t understand something.
The horses were SO nice, and galloping through the fields with them was phenomenal!
Oh yes, also the food was great, I ate so much I can’t believe it!
I would recommend this camp to anyone who wants to improve their French, make French friends, have FUN !

My camp experience with VSF at Formanoir was SUPER! The camp, the counselors, the friends I made, the ponies…! All was Super!!!
I am sure that I will go to Formanoir next summer again. During these two weeks I learned more French that in one year at school! I met many friends and I really want to see them again.
I liked all the games that we played each day and I really liked the BOUMS ! (evening dance parties).
I also learned many French songs that I enjoyed singing with my camp mates.
All the ponies were good, clever and funny. I enjoyed very much the time I spent with them, with my friends and also with the camp counselors...
My best memory was the camping trip with the horses in the forest surrounding the camp.
I really recommend this camp to other children, and don’t worry if you don’t speak French!

This camp was a great help towards my French and my horseback riding. Before I went to this camp I had no confidence in speaking French with other people but now yes! The campers and counselors really encouraged me and I can now have conversations in French!
One of my favorite memories at camp was galloping in the fields on the way to the campsite where we stayed overnight. It was my very first time galloping and camping I really enjoyed it. I would definitely do this camp over again. I recommend this camp to everyone who wants to improve their French at the same time have fun!!!
