Junior Scientist
(Ages 6-8)
Learning Science can be a messy business!
No worries, no fuss. We make sure to bring experiments alive with lots of hands-on activities. Make your Newtonian fluid dance to music, test the limits of pressure in your two-stage rocket balloon, or extract DNA from your squishy fruit. Every day we will explore different scientific concepts, and apply our knowledge to explore the secrets of the natural world!
Dinosaur Park (Age 6-8 & 9-11) *NEW
Dinosaur Park is where curiosity and creativity come roaring to life!
Campers step into a prehistoric world of hands-on science, imaginative play and teamwork to explore how dinosaurs lived, moved and thrived.
For ages 6 to 8, young explorers will dive into dino-themed adventures through playful experiments and creative building. From erupting fizzy volcanoes and hatching dino eggs to designing mini dino worlds and testing camouflage tricks, every activity spark curiosity and early STEM skill.
For ages 9 to 11, campers take their imagination further as they wire an Electric Stegosaurus, raise a towering Diplodocus neck, blow Bubble plesiosaurs and fine-tune volcano experiments – learning to think real scientist and engineers along the way.
Led by passionate science educators, Dinosaur Park helps every camper grow in confidence, creativity and collaboration – making science an unforgettable adventure!
*Do note that Dinosaur Park (Age 6-8) theme only available on 15-19 December 2025, refer to the weekly theme table below*
Bio Detectives (Ages 9-11) *NEW
Get ready for explore the living world in our hands-on biology lab!
Campers will dive into cells, genetics and body systems through real experiments. Extract DNA from fruit, build 3D cell models, test reaction speed and investigate osmosis – all while using microscopes, magnifiers and lab notebooks like real scientists.
Put on your lab coat, grab your safety googles and get ready to ask questions, make discoveries and see biology come alive!
