Overview

  • Optimal exposure to wilderness for the young adventurer
  • Foster team work & camaraderie through a mission
  • Learning to problem solve and take risks

What to Expect?

Do you worry your child will hurt himself and not know what dangers to look out for when outdoors? What should you do when we come across poisonous plants and wild animals in the forests?

Enjoy a multi-sensory learning experience with nature through a child-led rescue mission. Learn to identify possible hazards in the forest, minimise the risks and be equipped with basic survival skills if left alone in the woods. Through collaborative play, children will develop their creative and problem-solving skills with the help of others.

 

After-Camp Care (10 – 12 Jun)

This is an opt-in service for parents who require additional programming for their child from 3-6pm. Activities include team building activities with other campers across different age groups, games & movies, and snacks & refreshments to keep them engaged. These sessions will be facilitated by our in-house instructors. Please ensure you include this item at point of checkout.

What happens if it rains on the day of camp?

All children are required to bring their raincoats during the camp. In the event of light rain, the camp will still take place with the children safely suited up with raincoats. Rest assure that the children's safety is of utmost importance. Hence, during heavy rain and thunderstorm, all outdoor activities will cease and the group will seek shelter at the nearest shelter/pit-stop immediately. Wet weather activities/plans will take place then. All our camp locations have appropriate shelters.
