An overnight camp is a place for children to be themselves while trying out new experiences. A primary advantage of Overnight Camp is that children have more time to adjust to their surroundings and get comfortable while honing their learning and growing. They go through a range of recreational and educational activities throughout the day. With more time to spend on particular interests, overnight camps also provide a chance for children to become more independent by being away from family and teach them more responsibility for themselves and for others.

The homerooms organised activities such as singing, fun games, and dancing, ensuring every child was actively involved. Art activities were also a highlight, with students creating pinwheels and colouring tyres. After lunch, the students enjoyed a refreshing swim in the splash pool, which was a delightful and much-anticipated activity. In the evening, they took part in various sports activities, where their energy and enthusiasm were on full display.
The evening’s highlight was undoubtedly the bonfire, where students joyfully danced and moved to the rhythm of upbeat music.
Throughout the camp, the children were treated to delicious meals and snacks, which they eagerly enjoyed.
