Included in the BELS package are various safe and fun-filled activities. Students will have a mix of activities and excursions that are tailor-made for young learners. All activities are supervised by our trained activity leaders, who are dedicated to making sure  students have the best possible time with us.

The BELS Welcome Party

Our welcome party is an unforgettable experience where students will meet their future room and classmates from all over the world and make new friends in a heartbeat!

Our Activity Programme

Our activity programme will give young learners the chance to discover the Maltese Islands, their culture and also give them a taste of the Maltese way of life. Adventurous trips will take them to the historical cities of Valletta & Mdina. We will also organise shopping trips to Sliema and boat trips to the nearby islands of Gozo and Comino. They will have lots of opportunities to enjoy the blue seas via trips to various beaches. In the evenings, they will enjoy night hikes, night swims and the more daring can dance the night away at foam or salsa parties.

The BELS Water Sports Activity Programmes

Our sports programme will add to the fun of the language trip. If your clients wish to practise water sports, BELS offers special activity packages which consist of 4 lessons per week of 90 minutes each. Students can choose between sailing or windsurfing (equipment and teaching materials are included in the price). Water sports lessons will take place in Mellieħa. If they cannot decide between one sport or another they can also take part in our two week Water Sports Camp. This consists of 2 sailing lessons, 2 windsurfing lessons and 1 kayaking lesson.
