Instead of spending the whole day sitting down doing exercises, the holiday study camps are filled with games and activities, group projects and hands-on experiments, keeping kids engaged and learning.

Each camp lasts one week, starting on Monday and ending on Friday. Each daily session lasts four hours. Camps are held at one of three British Council centres: Napier Road, Tampines and Toa Payoh.

British Council's Holiday Study Camps are taught by experienced international teachers.

Taught by highly qualified and experienced international teachers, students at the British Council’s Holiday Study Camps get individualised attention and guidance. Committed to keeping parents abreast with their child’s progress, camps even offer parent-teacher meetings.

For primary school students, greater emphasis is placed on confidence-building, critical-thinking and collaboration.

The Creative Speaking Skills camp explores various forms of artistic expression. Students learn to share and justify their opinions, make presentations and take part in a debate. The week-long camp ends with them staging an art show.

In Our World: Non-fiction Writing Skills, students get to discuss and analyse scientific topics about the Earth. This is reinforced by learning about various types of written communication including formal letters and information reports.

The wonder of the world we live in takes the spotlight in the Great World: Writing Success camp. Students will uncover people, places and events that make our world what it is. They will end the week by producing a video capturing their new discoveries.

For the infinitely curious, Connected World: Public Speaking Skills will allow them to delve into the ways that people, places and the planet are all interrelated. Students will practise conducting interviews, giving presentations and using storytelling to convey a message. This will culminate in a visual chart of our connected world.
