The Summer camp is a great gateway for students to explore STEM and Entrepreneurship, gain confidence, learn communication skills, make new friends and have fun! It is a special chance for students to explore the world of innovation, and entrepreneurship coupled with Science and Engineering, introducing your students to the innovative process of design thinking. The students will learn problem-solving skills, and be introduced to new areas of Science, Technology, Business, Enterprise, Engineering and Maths through the lens of sustainability and climate action. The students will develop their creativity and innovation by addressing real-world challenges, culminating in a “Dragons Den” type of event, where the students will pitch their ideas to leading local Entrepreneurs.

“The things we did are applicable to all different types of careers and even non career aspects of life”
“a lot of new skills especially thinking outside the box”
