STEM Workshops
We offer a variety of topics and content aimed to excite every child.
Science and Engineering Challenge
In our Science and Engineering Challenge, students are introduced to a wide range of topics and hands-on design challenges. Through an entrepreneurial mindset, students build upon their critical thinking skills, resourcefulness and creativity to define, understand and design solutions to real-world problems. The topics students investigate range from renewable energy to wearable technology, marine biology and even outer space exploration!
LEGO Robotics
Our Junior LEGO Robotics Program challenges students to define problems, ask questions, and design their own solutions— setting them on a path to become lifelong learners. Our robotics workshops use LEGO® Education Spike Prime and Essentials robotics kits, designed to develop students’ curiosity and confidence to solve real-life problems. Block-based coding and curriculum-aligned lesson plans make STEM learning fun and accessible.
3D Design and Print
Our learning facilitators will guide students in solving problems through design, creating an original 3D model in TinkerCAD software. This workshop aims to unleash students’ confidence, design thinking, problem-solving skills and spark interest in STEAM with the fun and easyto-use software. Students will also get to observe and learn how 3D printers work and turn their unique designs into real objects!
Coding and Machine Learning
In our Coding and Machine Learning Program, students explore technology and artificial intelligence through blockbased languages like CoSpaces and Scratch, with options for Python. The curriculum empowers them to define problems, fostering their entrepreneurial mindset. Guided by facilitators, students develop coding proficiency and explore machine learning, creating an interactive learning environment that instills confidence and problem-solving skills.
Creative Literacy Workshops
Our creative literacy program aims to boost children's confidence, vocabulary and public speeking and debating skills.
Public Speaking and Storytelling
Our Storytelling and Drama program is centred around enhancing students’ articulation, public speaking skills, acting and imagination. Students will create stories, become characters and learn how to express both themselves, and their stories, clearly and passionately. These skills will support students’ ability to articulate their feelings and improve their communication skills. As they construct stories and share them with their peers, students will learn to collaboratively harness their creativity in ways they never knew before!
Speech and Debating
We are passionate about bringing the art of debating back into schools! Debating helps develop students’ critical thinking, communication, public speaking, teamwork and more lifelong skills in a diverse world. Our dedicated team provides a series of engaging workshops to introduce students to formal debating, guiding them in speech construction, persuasive techniques, evidence collection, improvisation and effective delivery.
