Q: How to run a summer camp?

The school Im working for would like to run some sort of summer camp for students, as Im English I thought in the UK would be best. I dont really have much idea about what a summer camp should involve as ive never been on one. I'm guessing some English learning, some fun activities and some exploring of the culture and places you visit. I looked at some UK weekend outdoor adventure and activity centres which could be good for part of the summer camp...but none that provide things for foreign visitors all aimed at English kids...

I would like to hear from anyone who has arranged one of these or similar, are there some companies which will organize these types of things inc visa etc. anyone have any idea of costs or problems we might have?

I hope I can get lots of Ideas on this, i have quite some time to plan and arrange it all but it seems like a huge task...hope you can help thanks Wink

for students to go to the uk? in the US there are special cultural exchange programs where young adults pay a huge fee to a company and that company sets them up with jobs in tourist industry hotels, resorts etc or factories like hershey . recently a group odf them protested their low wages and americans are growing angrier and angrier about it, because it takes jobs away from americans and it is a way for companies to escape paying taxes and using cheap labor (minimum wage)
you could setup something like that but more like volunteering and without all the negative aspects

A: "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is "Shenzhen agent can connect you with an employer, who's authorized to hire waigouren ... and can sponsor Z visa." It's not like every 10th person you meet in Shenzhen's hood can sponsor work visa ...  The only way to change from student to labourer visa is just a regular way by: 1. Finding an employer, who'll apply for an Invitation letter; 2. Exit China and apply for Z visa in your home country's Chinese embassy; 3. Enter China in 30-days after Z visa was stamped into your travelling instrument ...As I am aware, you won't be able to switch to Working permit by remaining in China....,so make ready for a return to your home .... -- icnif77
