Small groups
We keep groups small so every child is known by name. Ratios depend on age and activity, and we share them for each camp.
Our Approach
Children learn best with friends
Languages, arts and debate are ways children meet, take part, make friends and grow.
Our philosophy
Community is the educational purpose of CLA. We want children and teenagers to feel they belong to a group where friendships form, curiosity is welcome and their ideas matter.
We do not promise fluency or qualifications. We promise time with other people, good material, real reasons to speak and the soft skills that grow from all three: confidence, listening and collaboration.
Learning through creativity
Stories, theatre, art and conversation give a language something to do. Children use it to make a scene, explain a drawing or defend an idea, and discovery comes with the doing.
Many languages in one room
Our groups bring together children from Lithuanian, international and mixed-language families. They hear other accents, other stories and other ways of doing things, and they learn that a language belongs to the people who use it. We draw on literature, art, history and everyday life from many places, not only from the countries whose language we teach.
Belonging and safeguarding
We take bullying seriously. Teamwork, respect, sharing and kindness are part of every group, and we work with parents when something goes wrong.
Safe arrival and pickup
Children are handed over only to a parent or an adult you have named in writing. Tell us of any changes before the session.
Camps and outings
CLA staff supervise children throughout camps and outings. We ask for your written permission before any trip outside our venue.
Tell us about your child
Share their age and interests, and we will suggest a group that fits.
