Nine days of March school holidays is pretty short. But it is still good to take a break from your studies. If you are looking for ideas for a short outing with friends, we have eight activities at RWS that might be just right for you. In order how much time they consume, here they are.
Join the #loveatACW Instagram contest before it ends on 13 March
Here’s a chance to win a 1-night Stay at Ocean Suites (worth S$4120): Join the #loveatACW Instagram contest which ends on 13 March.
You still have the first two days of the school holidays to head to ACW and take a photo with your significant other at either the Love Arch near the entrance or Love Latch near The Bay Restaurant to win.

(3 minutes to ask someone to help take a photo of you both)
Take photos with the underwater Easter bunny
The Underwater Easter Bunny comes out of its burrow to bring you Easter eggs behind the glass. It doesn’t come often so be sure to catch it before it swims away. You can find it at 2pm at Open Ocean Habitat and at 4pm at Shipwreck Habitat. Check out the rest of the Easter programme at S.E.A. Aquarium.
Time needed: (5 minutes for photo taking)
Scale the Amber Rock Climb wall
If you’re in Universal Studios Singapore, take advantage of the free Amber Rock Climb at USS and give your arms and legs a workout.
Challenge yourself and see how fast you can reach the top. We heard from the folks there that the average time to reach the top is 5 minutes (for a pro, most likely.)
Time needed: (For novices, 5 minutes before giving up. Equal amount of time for pros to reach the top.)
Hide and seek at Wet Maze
The latest obstacle course at Adventure Cove Waterpark has two levels (double the fun!). The lower level is a maze where you can run as if you’re running for your life in the Maze Runner movies. If you’re not afraid of heights, the upper level has four different rope obstacle courses.
Time needed: (30 minutes for both levels at Wet Maze)
Go to K-pop concerts at K-Live Sentosa
