Easter Camps

Unlike traditional holiday camps, Lifelong Labs adopts a project-based, industry-informed, and future-focused curriculum with impact at the core of the experience. Our accelerated intensive program resembles the work creatives do in the field. Whether you are looking to build a robust portfolio or learn a new skill that most would assume too challenging for your age, we are here to support you in turning your ambitions into finished products. In order to personalised learning and challenge each student, all our camps are capped at a maximum of 4 students except Wilderness Cooking and Climbing, capped at a maximum of 3 students. Please understand that camps will need at least 2 students to run.

Enrolment for 2023 Easter Camp is now opened!

Hear from other parents

“Our family is a fan of Lifelong Labs and its teaching ethos. This year the boys are participating in their music production class. They quickly got onto the quick and dirty of music writing and professional production, and collaborated productively with two other bright talented boys to help with each others’ productions while managing their own creations. The end result was simply amazing and what’s more important was the possibilities shown to these young minds to affirm their inner potential! Many thanks to Mo Kwok and her team of dedicated educators for sharing their passion with the lucky boys.”
