Starcamp has the X Factor!
Get a taste of stardom as celebrities are set to visit Ireland's leading summer camp. This year not only has Starcamp Summer Camps recruited magician Keith Barry as their 2019 ambassador, but it has also teamed up with Sean and Conor Price from 'The X Factor' for the summer ahead!
Wicklow brothers Sean and Conor Price will take time out of their summer touring schedule to pop into some of the camps that are running nationwide to give the children an insight into the music business and sing a couple of songs with them.
“We are so delighted to have teamed up with Starcamp! They have everything we love, singing, dancing, acting, arts and crafts, camp games, magic and loads more. And they give out great freebies like wristbands, t-shirts, certs. Starcamp is the best!” Sean and Conor Price recently said.
With the camp’s biggest lineup to date, Starcamp owner Aideen O’Grady said that she “simply wants to give children an incredible, liberating and really positive week that can truly leave a mark on a child, due to our ethos of instilling self-esteem”.
As a mother of three sons and a daughter, Aideen knows the benefits this camp has on boys as well as girls. “We will always have the Disney classics and feel good songs and dances, but we have a strong emphasis on bringing boys in, as we see how much they absolutely love it and benefit from it too.
“They love the magic section, and this year Keith Barry has given away some of his best kept secrets so that the children of Starcamp can become budding magicians. They love the Fortnight dances, the exclusive games we play, the ‘celeb interview’ section that we include and lots more that goes on during the week.”
Staff at Starcamp HQ work all year round to ensure the best experience possible for all who attend. This year’s camps will include magic shows, a joke a day, 'Toy Story 4', 'The Lion King', 'Mary Poppins' and David Walliams’ Gangsta Granny for older children. There will be George Ezra sing-offs, Disney classics and pop music in addition to arts and crafts and a news reporting and interview section. All leaders are garda-vetted, fully trained and have a minimum of two years’ experience working with children.
A winner on Dragon’s Den, Starcamp has won numerous awards and is widely recognised for its work. Starcamp Summer Camp places are booking up fast, with a number of their camps already full. Every child receives a Starcamp t-shirt, art supplies, a certificate and more. The camp runs for five days from 9.30am to 2.30pm and is aimed at children aged 4 to 12 who will be divided into groups according to age.
