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.

The Community Leaders program shows students how they can use their design thinking skills to create and implement impactful initiatives to solve a challenge that they're passionate about in their local community.
Over the course of the term, students will be breaking into teams, participating in specialised masterclasses, and working to develop an innovative solution to the challenges presented to them, ready to showcase at a pitch event at the end of the term.
Over the course of the program students will learn through an in-person Hackathon Day, a series of virtual masterclasses, and a showcase event at the end of the program.
Whether it’s a vibrant youth space to upskill young people, an app to incentivize rubbish collection, or a robot to upcycle goods, the Community Leaders program empowers students to make a difference in fun and creative ways.
