WOW Camps are designed primarily for children aged 5–11 years. Older children are welcome to attend; however, parents should be aware that activities on any given day are planned with our core age range in mind and may not always be suited to older participants.

Our camps are offered in two formats: WOW Mini and Full WOW Camp. To ensure every child gets the complete experience, bookings are made for the full duration of the selected camp, so half-day bookings are not available within a Full WOW Camp.

We currently do not offer extended hours. Our WOW Mini and Full WOW Camp sessions operate within their advertised times, allowing us to deliver the best possible experience for every child.

We typically release our camps around 6 weeks before the start of each holiday season. To be among the first to hear when bookings open, we recommend joining our mailing list and following us on social media.

Each WOW Camp day is packed with hands-on STEM activities, creativity, and fun.
 
Every day is designed as a standalone experience, so your child can attend any day without needing to have attended previous sessions.
