The journey from a good idea to a product is a long one....in fact, some might say the good idea is the easiest part! In this module learners work to design and sell a BBQ, exploring the science behind their product along the way. Pulling in key ideas of heat transfer, the class will explore the most suitable materials, shape and measurements for the perfect BBQ. They will also become more familiar with using G-suites to create an advert which utilises fact and opinion, as well programme a simple budget using spreadsheet formulas. This is the perfect module for any budding business people or learners interested in function and design.
Planning the perfect trip takes a lot of organisation and research, but how much thought does the average person put into picking the right bag for the journey? In this module, learners consider the effects of forces and the properties of materials in order to choose the ideal bag for the trip of their dreams. Integrating the skills needed to plan a fair investigation, collect and present valid data and create a podcast, this is much more scientific than choosing their favourite colour. At the end of this module students will have gained confidence in thinking analytically and communicating complicated ideas.

In this three hour introduction module, learners dive into the world of elements and the possibilities of chemistry. The day starts with a brief introduction to the periodic table, exploring how it is organised in order to learn some basic rules of chemical reactions. This is the foundation for all chemists and essential if we don't want to destroy the lab! In the second session learners apply their new understanding by coding reactions between two elements... and discovering the consequences!
In this 30 hour module, learners imagine themselves as a travel blogger planning a once in a lifetime trip to a rainforest. Fascinated by what they might find when they get there, this module is a mix of researching the unknown, purposefully asking why, and communicating effectively along the way. Concepts explored include explaining the science behind the rainforest climate, gaining a deeper understanding of communicating proportion using fractions and charts, and how to research without plagiarizing. The module culminates with an exciting journey into coding the perfect website to reach their followers! This is the perfect module to scientists, fledgling journalists and everyone in between.
In this 3 hour module, learners are introduced to different types of circles. They learn about Coordinates and how to mark them. During the session, children identify the coordinates of the various circles (full circle, semi-circle, and quarter circle). They will finally choose a drawing made out of circles and create it digitally by themselves, using Neobael's Coding Platform.
In the near future, space travel is more accessible than ever and every planet is looking for new visitors. In this 15 hour module, students work as part of learning teams to highlight the most amazing aspects of their colony. Learners will grow their creative writing skills, develop their use of adjectives in descriptive writing and design a space zoo using the concept of perimeter. The final frontier will be a collaborative video to send back to earth using code, explaining how cool your planet is! Join us for an adventure of a lifetime into outer space!
In this 3 hour introductory module, learners imagine themselves as an adventurer who's taken an emergency landing in the Indian Ocean. Luckily there is a deserted island close by and they’ve managed to make a raft, but the waves are rough and it is important that they pack wisely. Only an understanding of mass and area can save them! This module practices calculating the area of a square and rectangle, and challenges students to code a game to see if their raft will stay afloat!
This 30 hour module encourages learners to imagine themselves as budding entrepreneurs. As they take their quaint home baking business to a more commercial set-up, they must pitch their best foot forward to obtain funds from prospective investors.
While they navigate through skills of writing, speaking, and creating art, they must also familiarise themselves with 3D shapes, fractions, creating adverts and learning to give constructive and considerate feedback.
Using entrepreneurship and business building as a core theme they will develop their persuasive writing skills, work with fractions and 3D shapes, while gaining confidence presenting and speaking on stage.
When music bands go on tours around the world, they perform, hold large scale concerts, greet fans, give interviews, participate in photo shoots and indulge in many other exciting activities.
