During school holidays, many parents look for meaningful programs that keep their children active, engaged, and learning. While there are many holiday camps in Dubai, parents increasingly prefer programs that combine fun activities with real personal development.
For nearly three decades, Eduscan Institute, approved by the Knowledge and Human Development Authority (KHDA) and the Community Development Authority (CDA) in Dubai, has been conducting leadership and personality development camps for children.
Under the dynamic leadership of renowned educational psychologist Dr. Alka Kalra, Eduscan’s camps have helped thousands of children develop confidence, communication skills, and leadership qualities.
Dr. Alka Kalra often reminds children and parents of a powerful idea that guides the entire program:
“Leaders are not born but made.”
This philosophy reflects the belief that with the right guidance, encouragement, and opportunities, every child can develop the qualities of confidence, resilience, and leadership.
The program is designed around a simple yet powerful principle:
strengthen the body, sharpen the mind, and enrich the spirit.
One of the most distinctive features of Eduscan’s camps is its strong focus on public speaking and stage confidence.

Many children initially feel hesitant or nervous when speaking in front of others. Through guided practice and supportive mentoring, they gradually build the courage to:
For many children, standing on stage and delivering their presentation becomes a transformative experience, reinforcing Dr. Alka Kalra’s belief that leadership is a skill that can be nurtured and developed.
Eduscan’s leadership camps focus on developing the whole child, not just academic ability.
Children are encouraged to develop:
By nurturing these qualities, the program helps children discover their strengths, overcome their fears, and develop the mindset of confident leaders.
Eduscan’s camps combine learning creativity, and physical activity, ensuring children grow in multiple ways.
Activities include:
These activities help children remain mentally stimulated, physically active, and socially engaged, creating a balanced learning experience.
Modern education is not only about academic knowledge. Children also need opportunities to develop confidence, creativity, and social intelligence.
Leadership camps provide experiences that contribute to a child’s overall growth.
Children explore activities beyond the traditional classroom and discover new interests.
Children interact with peers from different schools and backgrounds, learning teamwork and communication.
Achieving milestones—such as performing on stage—helps children develop lasting confidence.
Creative activities allow children to express ideas and imagination freely.
Structured camp activities help children build responsibility and self-management.
Interactive challenges encourage critical thinking and decision-making.
