“Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn.”
All of our Holiday Camps and After School Clubs are based on:
Tactile Leaning
All of our sessions are based on the 'Tactile' learning methodology.
By using this method all students have the ability to learn through making, building, testing, sorting and doing.
ABL
Action Based Learning (ABL) is a teaching methodology is based on the brain research that supports the link between movement and learning to improved academic performance and behavior.
Knowledge Mapping
Children are encouraged to mind map all of our activities. This is very useful for children who encounter difficulties in learning. When they create mind maps, they manage to put their ideas in order.
Accomplishment
By completing practical activities and projects children feel they are achieving something – experiencing a sense of mastery. They take pride in showing their creations to friends and family.
Our Provision:
Let’s Make consists of projects from across all our provision, including engineering, construction, electronics, math, science, art, no-screens coding plus many more.
It caters for all interests and abilities and does not utilize any screens!
Projects include Giant Catapults, Jumbo Tetrahedrons, Paper Electronics, Formula One Racers, Rocket Launchers, Tube Roller Coasters, Cosmetic Chemistry and Circuit Engineering.
Maths Makers is a practical and enjoyable approach to learning key concept maths.
Following the Australian and UK Curriculum it allows children to demonstrate understanding through constructing a range of practical maths projects, children then use these projects to complete a wide range of games and activities.
Projects include Money Wallets, Bead Number Lines, Giant Fraction Robots, Magnetic Fishing, Flip/Slide/Turn Books, Spin & Tally plus many more.
Digi Designers is a computer based provision teaching children how to use CAD (Computer Aided Design) programmes.
Children use Tinkercad, a 3D modelling program, to create a range of 3D Digital projects starting with their own Avatar.
Projects include Avatars, Super Hero Suits, Create Your Own Alien, Jewellery & Spaceships.
STEMgineers is a non-computer based, practical club. Children design, develop and construct a range of engineering based projects.
It covers a wide range of engineering principles, children keep the projects they make to continue learning from home.
Projects include Pneumatic Tipper Trucks, Fan Powered Cars, Fidget Spinners, Dragster, Air Rockets plus many more.
Young Architects is a computer based, architectural design club. Children design a range of Architectural projects using 3D modelling CAD (computer aided design).
Once they have learnt the basics of the program (Sketch Up) they design dens, houses and sky scrapers.
Learn all about: Structures, Building Materials, Proportions, Environmental Design & Inclusive Design
Unplugged Coding is a coding club without a computer! Children learn and understand the basics of coding through completing a range of making projects, games and activities.
Going offline and teaching coding through hands-on activities makes the subject less intimidating and more interactive for students.
Projects Include Decoder Wheels, Coding Maze, Binary Bracelets, Botley Games, Coding Maps plus many more.
Cosmetic Chemistry is a practical science club where children make a range of products including skincare, aromatherapy, haircare and eco-household raw materials.
Using all natural products children learn about reactions, molecules, solubility, elements and much more. They also design their own packaging.
Projects Include Bath Bombs, Exfoliate Scrubs, Soap Bars plus many more.
