Kids Invention Camp: Biomimicry & Entrepreneurship with Nature (2-days)

Looking for a fun and meaningful holiday programme for your child?

This December, send your child to the Kids Invention Camp designed specially for kids (aged 7 to 12) who love hands-on activities, outdoor play, creativity, and learning through exploration.

Benefits for Your Child: Your child will grow in creativity, confidence, and curiosity as they explore nature, invent solutions, and build hands-on prototypes. They’ll strengthen important 21st Century Competency (21CC) skills such as critical thinking, DIY making, collaboration, communication, and global/environmental awareness, while learning to manage emotions, resolve conflicts, and work well with others. Through active play, reflection, and teamwork, the camp nurtures resilience, responsibility, and a love of learning, supporting your child’s overall wellbeing and readiness for the future.

Benefits for Parents: You can be assured that your child will not only be building future-ready skills but also learning the 5 Ways to Wellbeing, a global framework adopted by leading international schools around the world. Your child will grow more confident, creative, and resilient as they explore outdoors, invent solutions, and collaborate respectfully with peers. Your child will return home with stronger communication skills, emotional stability, appreciation for the environment, and a renewed sense of curiosity and joy. It’s a meaningful holiday experience that supports your child’s long-term wellbeing and development, giving you peace of mind and growth you can see.
