Gift your child an experience-to-remember this summer!

 

A Finnish-education style summer camp encompasses three overarching themes of Design Thinking, Connected Learning and Social & Environmental Citizenship.

Themes: Entrepreneurship, Creativity, Teamwork, Mindfulness, Exploration, Analytical Thinking, Connected Learning, Reflection

OWN Inspiration Summer Camp focuses on three overarching themes: Design Thinking, Connected Learning and Social & Environmental Citizenship.

OWN Inspiration Summer Camp focuses on designing the most powerful learning environments by making Hong Kong’s physical characteristics the backdrop of the classroom. Having professionals who are passionate about their respective fields of expertise as coaches and mentors allow to learn from the best people with real world experiences. 

This program gives your child maximum exposure to a range of life skills that are not emphasized in the traditional classroom setting, but also encourages your child to fully exercise these life skills in different scenarios. More importantly, OWN Inspiration Summer Camp is designed to ensure maximum enjoyment for your child!

  • Theme 1:  Mindfulness & Sustainability – Me and My Environment 

What you do makes a difference and you need to decide what difference you want to make. This  sensory exploration teaches to open up senses and activate them to enable mindfulness. Being aware of yourself and your environment will be the beginning of a self discovery journey of who you are, what values you stand for, who you want to be and finally how to apply design thinking to develop yourself and your relationship with the environment.

Location: Central / Sai Ying Pun | Time: 9am – 3pm

  • Theme 2: Entrepreneurship – From Idea to Reality 

Understand what it means to be an entrepreneur and what is required to operate a successful business. We go behind the scenes to find out how a business operates from ideation to store front as well as how products are made from design to production. Understanding the different departments and people within a company, operational processes and how to apply design thinking all contributes to a socially and environmentally sustainable business.

Location: Hong Kong Island & Kowloon | Time: 9am – 3pm

  • Theme 3: Design, Create & Appreciate – Make Your OWN Pinewood Derby Race Car

Living in a city where most products are imported, people rarely experience the process of design, iteration and the satisfaction of holding your creation in hand. For example, wood is one of the most common materials but we tend to only interact with it in its final form. Let's explore carpentry as one of the more tangible ways to experience design making. The final product will be a pinewood racing car made using your own design and basic tools and to finish it off!

Location: Chai Wan | Time: 9am – 3pm

  • Theme 4 – Storytelling as a Film Maker 

In today’s digital world we play the role of content consumers as well as content producers. With all the information we receive, we often simply remember a good story. Technology has democratized the power to share stories with the world. Therefore, now, more than ever, anyone has the opportunity to stand out, spread a message, and make a change through storytelling. The same goes for students applying to schools or fresh graduates applying to jobs. The skill of good storytelling will separate you from the crowd, making it a timeless skill. Let's discover storytelling skills through visuals and create your own unique film. 

Location: Central | Time: 9am – 3pm 

  • Theme 5: Nature – Creativity and Adventure 

End the camp by seeking adventure at one of Hong Kong’s most beautiful corners. This experience will be filled with activities including kayaking, stand up paddle boarding (SUP), snorkeling and even coasteering. Coastal surveillance will give you a first hand encounter of the plastic ocean problem in Hong Kong.  This overnight camp is a great opportunity to gain independence as well as life skills through various camp crafts. 

Location: Sai Kung | Time: 9am – 3pm (overnight)
