Little Day Out’s Fly High Air-venture Camp (2 to 4 Dec)

Here is an overview of the activities that they will experience over the 2.5 day camp.

Little Day Out's Fly High Air-venture Camp Programme

Aviate, Navigate, Communicate

Frontflight Aviation: A Pilot's Story - Aviate, Navigate, Communicate

On Day 1, campers will be introduced to the elusive world of aviation and learn first-hand from the aviation professionals at Frontflight Aviation showing young aspiring aviators the possible. Ray, an avid aviator surpassed the odds to achieve her commercial pilot license will be sharing her incredible journey. CEO and Founder of Frontflight Aviation, Bryan Yap, who has been in the RSAF flying helicopters and participating in rescue missions in the last two decades, will map out the various situations one might encounter and more.

Children will also get a lesson on basic air navigation as well as survival skills training. They will go through a scenario-based exercise and put the skills they have learnt into practice with a flight simulator experience!

Aerodynamics: The Science Behind Flying

Little Day Out's Fly High Air-venture Camp with Just Fly It: Paper Planes & Air Rockets

How do the aviation designers test out prototypes and concepts? Through paper planes! Children will learn how paper planes achieve flight by folding both conventional and unconventional paper planes with Just Fly It. Discover the secrets behind folding the ultimate paper plane using the power of aerodynamics and science. More than just flying straight ahead, the planes that are folded in this lesson will be designed to fly in more directions than one. What’s more, Junior Aviators will also learn how a rocket is built, its trajectory flight path and get a chance to put one together plus launch it too!

Little Day Out's Fly High Air-venture Camp with Just Fly It: Rubber-Powered Planes

Just Fly It will show your Senior Aviators how to make a rubber-powered glider and teach them flight principles and scientific concepts such as propulsion theory and converting elastic potential energy to kinetic energy. Just Fly It was founded to provide a fun and dynamic environment for aeromodellers to pursue their hobby and now provides enrichment programmes in schools to spark aviation and science interest in students.


MAJ Aviation Aircraft Hanger Tour

Little Day Out's Fly High Air-venture Camp: MAJ Aviation Hangar Tour

Take this unique chance to enter an aeroplane hanger at MAJ Aviation’s General Aviation Centre with the world’s first double-storey rotating carousel which can display and park up to 12 GA light aircraft. The two hangars have direct access to the Seletar Airport runway. Campers will get behind the scenes at this tour of the spot where private jets are parked and gain insight to a space where aerospace engineers maintain, repair and overhaul exclusive jet planes! They will also expand their horizons as they learn from aircraft engineers on how to become one too!


Nature In Flight at Hampstead Wetlands Park

Little Day Out's Fly High Air-venture Camp: Birdwatching at Hampstead Wetlands Park

Located next to The Oval @ Seletar Aerospace Park, Hampstead Wetlands Park is centred around a lake which attracts birds and wildlife, making it the perfect spot for an idyllic nature walk and birdwatching. From a professional nature guide specialising in birds and an author of five books on birds, we will learn about nature in flight and try to spot local species of birds such as the Black-naped Oriole and the White-bellied Sea Eagle on this birdwatching expedition.


Orienteering Photo Hunt Fun at The Oval @ Seletar Aerospace Park

Little Day Out's Fly High Air-venture Camp with Orienteering Singapore: Photo Hunt Fun at The Oval

To be an aviator, one of the key milestones is navigation. So before we take to the skies, we need to first master navigation on the ground. Through orienteering, the sport of navigation, campers will go on a photo hunt at The Oval @ Seletar Aerospace Park with the coaches from Orienteering Singapore. They will learn how to identify objects on a map as well as select fair and safe routes toward where they want to head to.

Some sights that they will get a chance to safely explore and admire include the view of the nearby Seletar Airport runway. They will also see colonial black-and-white bungalows that were previously used by the British Royal Air Force. Throughout, the kids will get a chance to hone their navigational and observational skills in this fast-paced and fun activity.


Lunch Talk with a Real Life Pilot

Little Day Out's Fly High Air-venture Camp with Orienteering Singapore: Photo Hunt Fun at The OvalEver wanted to have a chat with a pilot? In this special lunchtime activity, air-venturers will get to go up-close and personal with Captain Andrew Tan, a pilot with Scoot.

Hear first-hand what a day in the life of a pilot is like, from take-off-to touch down. Aspiring pilots can also take this chance to get advice on how they do can fulfil their dreams of taking the skies in a plane.


Behind-the-Scenes Tour of Seletar Airport

Little Day Out's Fly High Air-venture Camp with Seletar Airport: Behind-the-Scenes

What’s more, kids will get to role-play as airport managers and check-in agents, and learn about security, immigration and all the other roles essential in ensuring a great passenger experience at the airport.


Airplane Playtime

Aeroplane Playground

Campers will also get some fun downtime to play at the nearby Airplane Playground consisting of fun airport-themed structures and a giant Ludo board.
