UOL Malls U-CAMP Holiday Workshops


School holidays are a time for students to unwind and recharge – but for parents, it often means having to plan activities that are both fun and enriching so the kids aren’t just idling away the whole month. Happening from now till 6th July 2025, the U-CAMP Holiday Workshops by UOL Malls makes everything incredibly fuss-free, consolidating more than 20 different types of workshops and activities for participants aged 2 all the way to 19. There are even adult and parent-child options, so the entire fam can get involved.

These range from dance and martial arts to cooking and robotics, so you’re bound to find something that your little one will be interested in. The best part? The U-CAMP Holiday Workshops will be taking place across 3 UOL Malls: KINEX, United Square, and Velocity@Novena Square. This means Mum and Dad will be able to jalan jalan while waiting to pick up their kiddo afterwards, and the family will have no lack of places to have a meal together afterwards. Here’s a glimpse at the workshops available at each of the malls:
