Abu Dhabi's Biggest Summer Camps Await Kids

Summer Camps in Abu Dhabi: Over 60 Programs Await Children During the Break

Summer break is not just a time for relaxation, but also a valuable opportunity for development. The Abu Dhabi Department of Education and Knowledge (Adek) has launched its largest-ever series of summer camps, offering more than 60 different programs from July 1 to August 29, covering the regions of Abu Dhabi, Al Ain, and Al Dhafra.

Opportunities for Every Child

The camps aim to provide meaningful, experience-based learning for children. Whether it's artificial intelligence, entrepreneurship, arts, sports, or culinary experiences, there is a program for every interest. Special attention is given to programs tailored for 'Students of Determination' (students with special educational needs).

According to Adek, "Learning never stops," and these camps not only promote physical and mental development for students but also provide long-term learning motivation.
