The Hindu Young World will organize the second edition of its Summer Smart Camp, a platform to equip children with interesting skills in exciting ways.
The camp, open to children in the age group of 8 to 13, will be held in Bengaluru from May 9 to 13 in three centres – Kamaraj Road, V.V. Puram and Indiranagar, providing children an opportunity to learn, think, share and stay resourceful during the summer break.
The content has been tailored for children in two age groups: Basic Level (age 8 to 10) and Advanced Level (age 11 to 13).
What’s in store
Each of the five days will have exciting sessions with specially curated mix of content, and provide children an opportunity to explore a different course -- Robotics, Theatre, English, Quiz and Art.
The Robotics session will provide children hands-on training on basic robotic components and help take a deep plunge into the world of autonomous robots. Participants will take home their own robotics kit.
The Know Your English session will offer a chance for participants to experience English and probe its funny quirks – oxymorons, spoonerisms, analogies and more, interspersed with fun games.
In the Quiz session, participants will experience the thrill of competing in a quiz and will learn approaches to pick up trivia from the world around them.
In the Art session, students will be encouraged to tap their creativity, with younger students making a literal self-portrait and an observational artwork while using a variety of mediums. Older students will work on an introspective self-portrait followed by a product design project.
In the Theatre session, children will dive into fun theatre exercises, tackling teambuilding and leadership skills in a fun-filled way, apart from having activities targeted at performance skills, acting and voice modulation for dramatic performances.

The course fee is Rs. 3,000 (including a robotics kit and six months’ subscription to The Hindu Young World ).
