Of course, we welcome all skill levels. If they are passionate and dedicated, we are here to teach them everything they need to know about the world of media and entertainment.
Since this is a virtual camp, your child will be enjoying his/her lunch at home. They will have a lunch break from 12:00 - 12:45 daily. They are also welcome to munch on their favorite snacks throughout the day.
The program has limited spots and will be conducted through Zoom. The campers will be a mix of girls and boys between the ages of 13 – 17.
The winter camp will include two fun and interactive sessions daily from 11:00am – 1:45pm and a follow up session between the students and the working team from 3:00 – 4:00pm. Students will receive their “Wonders Box” before the start of the camp and it will contain all the materials required for the sessions.
All equipment will be provided. Before the beginning of the camp, our team will deliver a “wonders box” to your doorstep, which includes all the materials/giveaways your child will need during the camp.
Campers are required to speak English and own a computer/laptop, iPhone or iPad or any smartphone or smart tablet, to be able to enjoy the camp experience.
This is a wholesome course, and we recommend each camper spend all day at the camp. However, if they need to leave early on a specific day, please send us an email at wintercamp@twofour54.com and we will arrange accordingly.
Unfortunately, no refunds will be issued. However, we are confident your child will have a blast!
