Most holiday programmes only give you half
🎮 Pure entertainment
Fun — but your child comes home having learned nothing.
📚 Pure academics
Useful — but it's just school by another name, and the kids dread it.
Mastermind Camp gives you both. Built around group work, kids get real time to bond — and every activity uses the same higher-order thinking Kancil Science rewards. A real competition edge, and the best day of their holiday.
Why Mastermind, and not the alternatives
Instead of a day at home
Left to themselves, the holiday becomes hours of TikTok, YouTube and Roblox — restlessness and a tense house by dinner. Mastermind redirects that energy into something that genuinely lights them up.
Instead of tuition
Tuition drills. Mastermind develops. Your child discusses real Kancil Science questions and builds HOTS skills — learning straight from the Kancil Science team, not a generic tuition centre.
Instead of any other camp
Few programmes bring hands-on experiments, HOTS problem-solving and a guided museum exhibition tour together — all in one day. Most give you one. Mastermind gives all three.
One-day all-inclusive rate
All-in. One flat rate covering every workshop, all materials, the guided tour, certificate, exclusive merchandise, plus lunch & snacks throughout the day.
