Holiday Camps
Every school holiday we organize different action-packed Mandarin Camps for children.
The camps are designed on a weekly basis; either half-day or full-day intensive Mandarin programs.
Age group: 3 - 5Y / 6 - 8Y / 9-12Y / 13Y+
Children learn Mandarin through activities such as games, music, drama and STEM projects, 3D printing, art and craft, public speaking and Mandarin theatre. Our Mandarin camps are suitable for children from 3 years old, who can join the 3-hour session unaccompanied.
Our goal is to have children learn and speak Mandarin naturally through action-based tasks, creative projects and just having a great time. Not only do they learn the language through active and fun use during our sessions, but by doing so, they come to associate Mandarin with positive feelings, which will feed their enthusiasm for continued learning.
