Leisure programme at LAL Boca Raton

The leisure programme represents the largest part of the course and its our intention that all students take part in as many different activities as possible. All included excursions are compulsory unless illness or injury prevents this. We also have a programme of extra excursions which are offered to the students. It is important that these extras are booked well in advance.

 

Our activity leaders will organise a variety of on-site activities including casino night, talent show, films and a selection of typical American sports and games. Half-day excursions such as fun at the beach, Limo ride to Miami at night and shopping at Florida's largest mall, Sawgrass Mills Mall, and much more are included in the price.

Please refer to the sample of activities and excursions that young learners enjoy below.

All activities are supported by activity staff to ensure safety and bring the events to life.
