With curriculum time getting busier and busier, a great way to inspire and empower students is before and after school with extracurricular programs for students. Our after school programs are fantastic at doing this and allow us to get students thinking big and focussing on cross-curricular, project-based learning as they tackle challenges, build skills and work on projects that get them thinking about the world around them and the exciting opportunities open to their generation.
With everything from designing future cities to launching influencer brands, building businesses, working with technology and more, we have a range of standard programs to choose from, or we're able to customise a program to your school community. Our after school programs typically run for 6-8 weeks and cost $30 per student per week.

In a world witnessing rapid globalisation, an increase in population, and unprecedented technological advancements, our City Of The Future challenge invites students to dive into the intricacies of urban life.
From reimagining transportation, public spaces, diverse communities, homes, and workplaces, students reimagine their city for the year 2050, leveraging insights from how technology is integrated local and global innovations that shape the urban landscape. The City of the Future challenge will see students working together in teams to revamp sections of their city, adding new innovations, sustainable solutions, and urban design.
Throughout the program, students engage in design-thinking methodology to brainstorm ideas that address major issues faced by our cities. This program is open for Year 5-8 students from the Gladstone region and will run throughout Term 3, 2025.
