INFANT SCHOOL STEM PROGRAMMES (K1 - G1)
art Science adventures
Information:
In this engaging program, kids will delight in exploring the intersection of art and science, learning new science concepts even as they create their own masterpieces. From discovering the properties of water and surface tension through bubble and marbling art, to exploring the science of solutes, solvents & solutions through DIY tie dye tote bag-making, children will have a blast in this weeklong art adventure.
Attire: Comfortable clothes
What to Bring: A full water bottle, snack, jacket/cardigan
Dino discovery
Information:
Explore the wonders of prehistoric life with hands-on activities that guarantee learning, discovery, and fun! Where did dinosaurs come from and what did Jurassic World get right and wrong? Our junior paleontologists will have a dino-mite time:
Learning about the history of life on our planet, and examining real fossil specimens from our permanent collection! No time to go to the museum? We bring the museum to you! Campers will ooh and aah as they see and touch trilobite and ammonite fossils from the Paleozoic Era, and Spinosaurus and Mosasaur teeth from the Cretaceous period!
Discovering the most extraordinary dinosaurs to have walked the Earth, and how to differentiate carnivores and herbivores from their biology and physical traits
Exploring geology as they discover how fossils, earthquakes and volcanoes form, and making their own “fossils”, dino-ramas and explosive volcanoes!
Learning about animal habitats and conservation efforts
Through hands-on experiments, visual demos and arts and crafts activities, young paleontologists are guaranteed to have a roaring good time!

JUNIOR SCHOOL STEM PROGRAMMES (G2 - G5)
MasterChef Science
Information:
In this fun and engaging culinary science program, aspiring MasterChefs will explore the chemistry of cooking and baking! Students will learn about food molecules and how chemical reactions can affect food texture and flavour. They'll discover how proteins interact to create soft fluffy bread, and experiment with how sugar interacts with heat to make their own version of the viral Dalgona toffee! From whipping up meringue and popping bubble tea to crafting the perfect chocolate chip cookie, kids will enjoy edible science adventures that will leave them hungry for more!
Through exciting hands-on cooking and learning games, students will learn about:
• Proteins (gluten, yeast, and bread-making)
• Carbohydrates (sugars, caramelisation, and candy-making)
• Fats (saturated and unsaturated fats, emulsion, and meringue-making)
• Food macromolecule interactions in Baking (Maillard Reaction)
• Eating nutritionally (reading nutritional and ingredient labels for smarter meal decisions)
Attire: Comfortable clothes, Apron
What to Bring: A full water bottle, snack, jacket/cardigan, food containers
Pokemon Academy
Information:
Do you have what it takes to be the very best? Come on down and enroll in Pokémon Academy! Learn about the different types of Pokémon and discover the science behind their powers for effective battling! Trainers will have a blast exploring chemistry and physics through exciting visual demonstrations, learning games, and hands-on experiments, all while learning about their favorite Pokémon!
Trainers will have a ton of fun exploring the science of luminescence with glow in the dark Ditto, harnessing the power of air pressure and aerodynamics with Lugia and Pidgeotto to make DIY vacuum cleaners, engineering with electricity with Pikachu to make their own glowing Pokeball, and more!
