Across three age-specific tracks, students engage in multidisciplinary learning through science, technology, engineering, and art-based projects that encourage experimentation, problem-solving, and creativity.
Built on an inquiry-based, international curriculum, our spring programmes nurture curiosity, critical thinking, and a genuine love of discovery — all within a supportive, all-English learning environment.

Seasonal Events Parent Testimonials
My son joined for five days and really enjoyed all the fun activities.
He was so excited to go every single day.
Thank you so much.
- A Parent from Seasonal Camp (Preschool & Kindergarten)
My son was very shy on the first day, but from the second day on, he came home smiling and saying how much he enjoyed the program.
As a working parent, having such opportunities is incredibly valuable for us. We would love to join again next time!
- A Parent from Seasonal School (Primary School )
It was very well organized. My child had a great time and felt she gained a lot from the program. We’re even considering transferring her to Laurus Secondary School.
