Join us on an adventure through time!
This summer, our Holiday Camps will take us on an incredible journey through a “Time Machine”, where we’ll learn about electronics, technology, arts, physics, and much more.
By travelling through our imagination, we’ll be able to explore the origin of some concepts, unravel the secrets of historical innovations, and use these insights to try to imagine a more colourful future!
Monday
We’ll start off this journey with a dive into the world of electronics! From the beginning of long-distance communications to the incredible range of colors that light can have!
Tuesday
On the second day we are going to defy gravity, learn more about electronics and different sensors and finish the day with a launcher all based around magnetic power.
Wednesday
By the middle of the week, we will have learned about a few more electric components and watch them in action on a night light inventors will build by themselves! We’ll try to build a structure strong enough to withstand an earthquake and end with a project that teaches us about cleaning the ocean.
Thursday
To start off the day, we’re going to use light to reflect our own drawings with a kaleidoscope, defy gravity yet again but this time with magnets! After lunch we’ll dive into games of the past and build our own pinball.
Friday
On this day, inventors will assemble an alarm to keep their rooms extra safe and an electric beetle that works on solar power. Then, to finish off our summer camps, we will understand how lifts work by assembling one with its own motor that actually goes up and down.
what they say about us
Wow! The Inventors club is quite simply an absolutely awesome after-school club! Our pupils are loving every session and each week are taking home an amazing invention they have created themselves. It has been a huge pleasure to work with Sarah who has brought the club alive. Our pupils are thrilled to have such a unique club that our waiting lists are getting longer and longer ! We are so pleased to be part of such a club and look forward to seeing it grow from strength to strength in the future.

Since starting the Inventors Club at Ladymount, our children have really developed their inquiry skills and are enjoying the creativity which this great club encourages - especially getting to make a wide variety of fun things they can take home! It’s been great CPD too for our TA, Tom, who is relishing the opportunity to lead such a fun club each which the mini inventors really enjoy! Thank you Inventors!
MICHAEL MULHALLAssistant Head Ladymount
In our current times, it is imperative to equip our students with skills that go far beyond the curriculum! Society needs people who are creative, innovative, with thinking skills, capable of solving problems, communicative and, above all, happy! We need a better world where each of us is The Inventors!
Nelson MoreiraPedagogical Director Paulo VI School
I am sensitive to the objective of “creating”, from different experimental areas, objects with a strong interactive impact, leading me to conclude that The Inventors activities translate into a remarkable space for the education of children and young people, leading them to perceive the reality that surrounds them with all their senses.
António ValenteCoordinator of Additional Curricular Activities São João de Brito School
(The Inventors) is an asset in everyone's academic life. I have a 3 year old daughter and when I think about her future, I don't want her to be a doctor or an engineer, I aspire that she can create something, invent something, be useful. The Inventors is a weapon against the obsolete and mechanical school, it is an asset in the academic life of all students because it teaches them to think, to invent, to create, to be citizens and people with opinion, with ideas. Inventor children are children better prepared to give Planet Earth what living beings need.
