Your feedback (Parents)
Christopher has just done the week's camp with you at UCD and he has absolutely adored every minute of it and I just really wanted to thank you - and your team - for running such a good and highly-organised course. It seemed to me to be one of the best-run and best-structured summer camps either of my two children has ever done and I have been extremely impressed by all Chris has told me.
As you will have realised quickly, the course was right up Chris's street - he is mad keen on computers, websites etc etc. And I know I had this discussion with you on the phone some time ago, when I explained that he had already been working on websites and you said that while he may not learn a huge amount technically he would enjoy it and have a good time - and you were SO right! He had a ball. He loved the interaction with the other kids, made some friends, maybe the highlight was getting to use the Blackberry??!!! I thought the films you produced that they got to bring home yesterday were brilliant too - very enterprising!
So, many, many thanks for giving Chris an excellent week - he is truly disappointed that it is finished, he was extremely downcast last night!
Kind regards,
Hazel.
