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.

About The Program
Our Empowering Educators With Digital Tools program, is a professional development opportunity tailored specifically for teachers eager to enhance their teaching practices and streamline their workflows. In this session, we'll explore how leveraging digital tools can help educators work smarter, not harder, while also enriching the classroom experience for students.
We'll kick things off by delving into the world of digital tools, showcasing a variety of resources designed to simplify tasks, boost productivity, and spark creativity in the classroom. From project management platforms to AI tools, we'll highlight a range of digital platforms, such as ChatGPT, QuilBot, Canva, Notion, ClassCraft and so much more!
During the workshop, we’ll help teachers discover the resources they need to work smarter, not harder. This hands-on activity aims to save educators time and effort by showcasing existing resources, preventing the need to reinvent the wheel and fostering a community of collaboration and resource-sharing among educators.
Throughout the workshop, we'll guide you through hands-on activities and collaborative exercises, helping you explore the potential of these digital tools and discover how they can seamlessly integrate into your teaching practice. By the end of the session, you'll leave with a personalised toolkit of digital resources, practical strategies for implementation, and the confidence to navigate the digital landscape with ease.
