Of course, we welcome all skill levels. If they are passionate and dedicated, we are here to teach them everything they need to know about the world of media and entertainment.
Since this is a virtual camp, your child will be enjoying his/her lunch at home. They will have a lunch break from 12:00 - 12:45 daily. They are also welcome to munch on their favorite snacks throughout the day.
The program has limited spots and will be conducted through Zoom and Microsoft Teams. The campers will be a mix of girls and boys between the ages of 10 -12 for the first week and 13 – 15 for the second week.
Campers will be split into two separate week-long camps, with each day encompassing two different interactive and entertaining sessions between 11:00 am to 1:45 pm, followed by a follow-up session between students and the working team from 3:00 pm to 4:00 pm. All students will receive a “wonders box” before their camp commences, which includes all the session materials, stationary and required documents from partners.
All equipment will be provided. Before the beginning of the camp, our team will deliver a “wonders box” to your doorstep, which includes all the materials/giveaways your child will need during the camp.
Campers are required to speak English and have both a laptop and an iPad or iPhone or any smartphone or tablet to be able to enjoy the entire experience of the camp.
This is a wholesome course and we recommend each camper attends all online sessions. However, if they need to leave early on a specific day, please send us an email at summercamp@twofour54.com and we will arrange accordingly.
Unfortunately, no refunds will be issued. However, we are confident your child will have a blast!
Materials fee for our virtual summer camp costs
450 AED (VAT Inc.) for one week.
