introduction
Junior Summer is a residential English language summer school for younger students. It is based in Ramsgate, a seaside resort on the south-east coast of England.

We have exclusive use of the modern, state of the art Kirby House, the middle school of St Lawrence College Ramsgate, a traditional English public school founded in 1897.

Kirby House offers classrooms, residential accommodation, a cinema suite, student lounges and recreation areas, and provides a light and inspirational learning environment exclusively for Junior Summer students.

The playing fields, tennis and basketball courts are located around the building. Our young learners will visit the dining hall, set in the traditional building of the senior school, for their meals.

Our Junior Summer residential school is ideal for young learners from around the world wishing to combine an English language course within a full programme of sports, arts & crafts and accompanied cultural activities, in a totally safe and secure environment.

Our professional and caring team at Kirby House create a warm family-like atmosphere so that our Junior Summer students very quickly feel comfortable and at home in their new surroundings. All the participants arrive on the same day, and take the two week course together, helping them to make friends quickly.

With a maximum of 50 students within the specific age range of 12 to 15, we guarantee a special, personal atmosphere.
