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.
Incursions
Hands-On Learning Experiences In The Classroom
We offer a range of programs designed for primary and high school students aimed at inspiring and empowering students in their learning. These programs are tailored to fit with every class, school, and set of learning outcomes as we focus on building 21st-century skills within students in a fun and engaging way.
These workshops are typically run during school time and can be delivered as 1-2 hour workshops, half-day challenges, full-day courses, or multi-day programs. We have over 50 off the shelf programs ready for delivery as well as the ability to create tailor-made programs as well.
