Course Overview:
Join us for an exciting 5-day Holiday Camp where children dive into a world of creativity and innovation! Designed to spark curiosity, this hands-on camp invites kids to explore a variety of make-and-build projects, encouraging experimentation, enhancing dexterity, and strengthening both creative and critical thinking skills. Each day brings a new opportunity to learn, create, and have fun through purposeful play and exploration.
Course Content:
On Days 1 to 3, Students will learn to design a home for their family by applying Design Thinking principles to understand the needs and challenges of the people they are designing for. They will be introduced to the fundamentals of space planning to create thoughtful and functional home layouts.
On Days 4 and 5, students will dive into the exciting world of café design as they explore what it takes to create a one-of-a-kind space. From cosy corners to trendy themes, they’ll unleash their creativity by brainstorming unique concepts for their dream café. Each student will develop personalised floor plans, pick out furniture, colours, and décor, and bring their café vision to life—one detail at a time. It’s the perfect blend of imagination, design, and fun!
