Vera and JJ were invited to attend one of Insight N Access’ resilience camps last year. And they had a really fun and fruitful time.
The beauty of the camp lay in the great outdoors. The kids had the freedom to run and explore, climb grassy hills and cross drains. They learnt a lot about teamwork and looking out for others.
Exploring nature and collecting bags filled with curiosities
I don’t know about you, but we don’t often get the chance to wade in calf-high mud…This was definitely outside of most Singaporean children’s comfort zone. But I think these experiences help to build a greater confidence, an appreciation of nature, and an appetite for adventure. (Think OBS but tailored for young kids!)
Getting their hands (and feet) dirty, and soaring high under watchful eyes
Working up a sweat playing a variety of outdoor games
The best part is probably shooting one of your coaches with a water gun!
The kids also got involved in cooking and planning their own lunches, and learnt how to cooperate as a team to design and spruce up their own festive tree (using only recycled materials) for a competition.

Lights out, but still kept safe and warm
These camps are designed to let your child explore and discover themselves in nature, awaken their senses, harness their intuitive powers and gratify their curiosity.
Run by experienced sports coaches and with a high coach-to-child ratio, the camps aim to develop essential life skills like resilience, collaboration, independence and empathy in your child.
