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
The Future Of Long Haul Flying program has been designed to get students exploring how airlines around the world are tackling the challenge of distance as they launch ulta-long-haul flights to move passengers around the world.
Australia is one of the most geographically remote countries in the world, and with that, up until today, many parts of the world have been unreachable in a direct flight. With recent innovations in the aerospace industry meaning that new ultra-long-range aircraft will soon be able to connect the East Coast of Australia with parts of Europe and North America in a direct flight, airlines and airports across the country are now looking at how they will cater for ulta-long-haul routes.
The Future Of Long Haul Flying program will see students participating in challenges, exploring case studies from around the world, and localising ideas as they design a series of ultra-long-haul routes to connect their city with the world.
Over the course of the program students will be redesigning a new section of their closest airport international terminal to cater for passengers about to board a +20 hour flight, before they then explore the in-flight experience, sustainability factors to consider, and the marketing of this new route.
This is an action packed program of experiences for young people passionate about aviation and interested in learning about all the exciting opportunities available to them in the aviation industry.
