Olive – Language Camp
We stayed with families who had kids of our own age, and because they were on a mid-term break they came with us on all the trips. So apart from when we were actually in a language class, we were spending time with our new friends. It was a great way to practice the language we had been working on in the classroom. We also had to do a quiz on the last day – we were put into teams and given clues to help us find places around town. Our team finished early, so we waited for everyone else in a cafรฉ in the main square. While we were there, a film crew arrived and started filming! I can't wait to see it when it comes out – we were sitting outside, so we might even be in it!
According to the paragraph, Who did Olive have the chance to share with?

Malika – Theatre Camp
We stayed in a youth centre in the suburbs, and went into the centre of town by bus every day. It was a good way to see a bit of the city, and it didn't take long to get to the theater where we had our classes. I loved the atmosphere in the old buildings, and we could wander around during our breaks and watch reharsals. The actors we saw were brilliant, and it was inspiring to watch them before went back into our own classes. The emphasis was definitely on having fun, but we still learned a great deal and I'm looking forward to putting it all into practice at my school drama club next term! The food at the centre could have been better, but I don't think anyone minded much.
According to the paragraph, What was the focus of the Camp?
