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.

Alana Kilmartin is an Australian author and speaker who proudly grew up on a farm outside a small town no one has ever heard of. She graduated from Monash University with a double degree in Commerce and Biomedical Science. Clueless about what to do next, Alana moved to New Zealand where she stumbled into high-performance sales and became one of the country's top travel agents.
