"Artek" ("Amber"). general information

Accommodations
Children's rest can be excellent only on condition of quality living conditions. Let's take a closer look at this point.
Children live in a large five-story building, which locals call nothing more than the "Sunny Palace".
The rooms, designed for 8-9 people, are furnished with modern and comfortable furniture. They have a bright and fashionable repair.
The building houses spacious music halls, games rooms, a children's cafe, and a laundry room with a separate ironing and drying room.

Near the main building for living are a school, a large Sports Palace, which houses an indoor swimming pool, tennis and sports halls, rooms for sections and circles, as well as a small stadium.
Child nutrition
The food in the camp is very good. Children are fed five times a day according to schedule. More than four hours should not elapse between meals.
The following meals are included - breakfast, lunch, afternoon snack, dinner, and second dinner.
The Swedish food system is organized here. For example, for breakfast, a child can choose several dishes from hot or cold snacks. Every morning, two types of porridge and several types of pastries are surely cooked. Meat and fish dishes are also available for lunch and dinner. Typically, the number of options is at least five.
For good digestion in children, a variety of sour-milk products are necessarily included in the diet - kefir, yogurt, cottage cheese and more.
Several times per shift, sweet tooth days and once a day of national cuisine are held.
Camp training
As mentioned above, "Artek" ("Amber") works year-round, so during the study period, holidays here are combined with the school curriculum.
But there are subtleties. Education is the most common here. Without in-depth study of subjects. Therefore, children who study in specialized schools or gymnasiums will not receive here the same knowledge that they would be given in their native educational institution. Therefore, it is better to send children from such schools to a children's vacation in Yantarny only in summer.
The school building and classes meet the latest requirements for comfortable learning. Convenient desks, modern boards, necessary equipment and good repair contribute to the excellent mood of students.
