At Mini Professors we are passionate about science and we aim to inspire a generation. Our theme tune’s opening line is ‘Science is all around us’ and this reflects the ethos of our lessons. We feel that all children have a great thirst for learning from a young age and therefore, should be given every opportunity to develop and learn new skills and wonder at the world around them. We believe that science should be accessible to all. As with any language, children can easily absorb and learn from an early age. That is why we endeavour not to dumb down scientific terminology but explain scientific principles in simple terms with fun experiments. We encourage our Mini Professors to explore for themselves and interact as much as possible. A fun science session for 4-8 year olds. This is a parent & child class.

At SG Maths, we run holiday camps based on the Mathematics approach known as Singapore Maths which aims at empowering the learners with a solid foundation in understanding mathematical concepts through mastery. We rely on that approach to develop our unique methodology to allow our participants to sharpen their mathematical understanding and general problem-solving skills in a fun and engaging way. In a small group camp setting, the participants get to apply and reinforce these skills through experiential and interactive learning with facilitation from the camp instructors. We understand it can be challenging persuading some children to agree to go for a "Maths" camp. So we have since renamed our camps - Mathemagicians Camps! Feel free to keep things cryptic. We have had participants who had no clue what they were in for until they came for the first day. But all were happy to stay for the entire week! ​Our Camps are held in modern and bright classrooms with at least 2 hours of outdoor activities (within the school premises) every day. All our camp instructors are DBS-checked, trained, experienced, enthusiastic, and passionate both with working with children and imparting their love for Maths.

Boss Kid camp is a modification of our Master Mathemagician Camp. Participants form their own partnership (of two or three friends) in order to compete with other aspiring entrepreneurs to win the ultimate "Boss Kid" and "Boss Kid Junior" title. The 4-days camp will build up to a grand business project that the team will undertake in order to make the most money. Key mathematical skills will be applied through the camp in order to best develop their business plans.
