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.
Young Innovator Days
Bringing Students Together From Across The Community To Connect, Collaborate And Create
Schools today are always on the lookout for impactful learning opportunities that can get their students out of the classroom and into the real world.
A great way to connect with young people in your local community would be to host a Young Innovator Day. These events would see 5-10 students from a selection of schools across your local community coming together to develop their skills, understanding and ideas related to your industry and organisation.
Run over the course of a day, this program would see 80-120 students coming together in person as they build their skills and understanding related to a central theme set by your organisation as students explore jobs in your industry, the types of projects they might work on, and the exciting opportunities available to them.
The day would be broken into three sections with each section focussing on a different theme or activity. Each section would see students first hearing from a keynote speaker, panel discussion or a fireside chat, before then getting hands-on with a challenge to develop their skills and understanding.
