Summer just got seriously exciting — step into the year 2050 with us!
‍
For four unforgettably fun weeks, your child will explore what’s possible when curiosity meets creativity — through hands-on projects and real-world challenges designed to spark big thinking.

Throughout the experience, children will develop five essential life skills:
📌 Creative problem-solving
📌 Communication
📌 Teamwork
📌 Innovation
📌 Confidence

They’ll dream big, challenge themselves, and — most importantly — have loads of fun doing it.
Whether they join us for just one day or stay for the full four weeks, every camper will walk away with something they’ve created, built, tested or discovered.

Free extended day care available: Early drop off from 8am, late pick up until 3pm

Adana is really enjoying the camp. She’s eager to tell me what she’s been doing without me prompting her which means it was fun for her. She said she’s learnt even new terminology which was new for her as she’s asked me a few times what does resilience means for example. And she enjoyed most the idea of creating her own country and her own flag and talked about bills and rights which is great to see her talk about things that she isn’t normally exposed to.

She knows everyone's name. She is really excited to come back. We can't believe how much her confidence increased and she seems to be making friends very quickly. The challenges they faced and the team spirit they have developed were extremely impressive.

Mom of 11 year old girl

Melek had such a great time in the Invention Camp last week! He definitely felt your energy all day, and I could feel his motivation and happiness when I picked him up every day. He even continued to make some inventions at home after the end of the camp. He told me that the camp was great and the best thing was meeting new friends.

FAQ

Can my child attend only specific days?

How do you handle behaviour issues?

We promote a positive and respectful camp environment. Minor issues are handled through redirection and discussion. For more serious or repeated issues, we will contact parents to collaborate on a solution.

What should my child bring to the camp?

We provide a detailed packing list for each camp programme. Generally, children should wear comfortable clothing and bring a packed lunch, water bottle, and any necessary personal items.

How do you make sure the camp content is age-appropriate?

We ensure our camp content is tailored to meet the developmental needs of every child by offering two distinct pathways: one for children aged 5-8 and another for those aged 9-11. This approach allows us to create activities and challenges that are both engaging and suitable for their respective age groups. Our goal is to ensure that every child feels supported, stimulated, and excited to learn in an environment that meets them where they are in their journey.

Can I drop off my child early or pick them up late for your camps?
