Program Information

Students tackle the global sustainable development goal of “Sustainable Cities and Communities.” Space exploration

is a vital part in building sustainable economy. Students will explore space travel in a relatively structured manner, from

hands-on making rocket launchers to creating mini telescopes.

P. 9

Program Information

Students tackle the global sustainable development goal of “Zero Hunger.” Nearly 8.9% of the world population are

still suffering from hunger and the world is not on track to achieve Zero Hunger by 2030. The camp aims to promote

students’ understanding towards sustainable agriculture by reinventing food supply chain, from designing self-watering

farms to building eco-friendly compost.

Program Information

The multisports program introduces students aged from 3.5–4.5 to the components of fitness and the different ways they

can control their body, through a variety of activities and games centered around one daily component. By engaging in

these activities, students will also partake in a combination of individual and team exercises that not only train the skill,

but also introduces them to collaborative learning. Students will compete in teams and learn how to work and solve

problems, and work together to achieve a goal, as well as attain teamwork and communication skills. Our activity-based

project will primarily focus on these two objectives, but through our program, students also develop a natural love and

appreciation for physical activity and playing sports.

Program Information

Students tackle the global sustainable development goal of “Life on Land.” 30% of the known animal species are at

risk of extinction. We aim to help develop a scientific mindset by exploring biodiversity from raising caterpillars into

butterflies to creating sanitation soap for disease prevention.

P. 12

Program Information

Students tackle the global sustainable development goal “Clean Water and Sanitation.” Today, 1 in 3 people worldwide do

not have access to safe drinking water. Students form interdisciplinary scientific connections by tackling water pollution

from raising tadpoles and frogs to building mini pollution filters.

Program Information

Students between the ages of 4.5–6 are still in the early years stage of their physical development journey, but are more

likely to have greater understanding of group learning settings and environments. Students are, however, still learning

how to control or even move their body when participating in physical activity. Building on the components of fitness

remains paramount, however their relative experience in working within groups at an older age allows us to introduce a

layer of complexity through sport specific skill acquisition and team play.
