MasterChef Science ($420/pax; June 30 - July 4, 2025; 7-14yos; 9am - 12pm daily@NLCS)

In this fun and engaging food science program, aspiring MasterChefs will explore the chemistry of cooking and baking! Students will learn about food molecules and how chemical reactions can affect food texture and flavour. They'll discover how proteins interact to create soft fluffy bread, and experiment with heat, sugar and caramelization to create the viral Dalgona toffee! The program covers diverse culinary adventures, such as creating popping bubble tea and crafting the perfect chocolate chip cookie. Through exciting hands-on projects, students will learn about: • Proteins (gluten, yeast, and bread-making) • Carbohydrates (sugars, caramelisation, and candy-making) • Fats (saturated and unsaturated fats, emulsion, and meringue-making) • Food macromolecule interactions in Baking (Maillard Reaction) Additionally, they will develop practical skills for making informed nutritional choices by reading labels for smarter meal decisions.

Start Date: 30 Jun 2025

LEGO Robotics: Battlebots! ($420/pax; July 7-11, 2025; 7-12yos; 9am - 12pm daily@NLCS)

In this fun introduction to robotics, kids will learn to build and program progressively more challenging robots using LEGO SPIKE Prime robotics and a drag-and-drop Scratch-based programming software. Young engineers will discover how to use coding, sensors and attachments to make their robots perform specific tasks, even as they hone problem-solving, communication and collaboration skills. The camp will culminate in a final mini competition where kids will battle their wits and bots in the ring! Young engineers will gain a foundation in the basics of robotics and coding, and will develop their logical problem solving skills. They'll have a blast: Discovering the fundamentals of block-based coding and basic programming logic, and how robot motion is realized Exploring the working principles of sensors Honing their creativity as they learn to analyze construction challenges and break large problems down into smaller ones
