In this 4-day writing camp, students will be happy and contented with their enriched ability to express themselves creatively. They will take pride in their newfound proficiency in reading comprehension, feeling confident in their capacity to analyse and interpret texts.
Young students will relish the knowledge they gain from studying the techniques of their favourite books, which they can apply to their own writing, especially character emulation and plot development.
New this year, we are incorporating Oral components to prepare students for the upcoming changes in the oral syllabus next year. This early exposure ensures that children are well-prepared and confident in tackling oral requirements when they advance to the new syllabus.
Most importantly, they will develop a lasting love for reading and writing, a source of joy that extends beyond the camp and nurtures their curiosity and self-expression.
