What We Do

At The Inventors, we bring science and engineering to life through hands-on, playful projects crafted in our educational lab. From building lightsabers that illuminate the physics of light to creating UV lamps that reveal hidden messages, each project is designed to spark curiosity and deepen understanding.

Our students don’t just learn concepts—they experience them, gaining an intuitive grasp of mechanics, physics, and electronics. Every challenge invites them to experiment, discover, and see the magic in STEM, fueling their creativity and problem-solving skills for the future.

Our facilitators' experiences

Experiences that inspire us all

I am very proud to have experienced the activities developed by Inventors. It allowed me to increase my confidence, develop my organisational and communication skills when expressing myself to a small audience. The role of monitor shaped my interaction and teamwork in my professional activity. I loved the team, the company values, the children, and the whole experience!
I worked with The Inventors for 5 years in schools, holiday camps, and workshops. One shy Year 1 girl, Inês, initially struggled, building projects on my lap. But over four years, she grew into a confident leader and stayed with us through Primary, despite her mother’s suggestions. On her last day, I wrote a message on her leavers' t-shirt, hugged her, and encouraged her to keep flying. She hugged me back and left without a word or a glance back.
Hey everyone! I’m Ishan, and I’ve been with The Inventors since January, creating fun projects and teaching kids science. Preparing with friends on Sundays has become a tradition, and playing football with the kids during breaks is priceless. Huge thanks to the Inventors team for this heartwarming adventure—I can’t wait to see what’s next!
At the end of the school year, a student who frequently changed schools came to me and said that the Inventors' classes had been the most fun she had ever had and that she wouldn't forget the classes or me. This and other experiences I had taught me the importance of enthusiasm, motivation, and the careful transmission of knowledge that occurs every day in my professional context. All these are assets that have been pointed out to me as important and positive, qualities that I can clearly trace back to the learning and experiences I had with the Inventors.
My most significance experience working at The Inventors is the end of each session. It’s a surreal moment seeing all the kids smiling and so content that they have produced a piece of work that is their own! This sense of fulfilment that is created has actually motivated to become a primary teacher myself - to keep on spreading happiness and joy through every classroom I enter.
In one school, I taught a shy Year 1 girl, Inês, who often built projects on my lap. One day, she completed a project on her own, and her confidence grew as her classmates’ respect for her did too. Over four years, Inês became a confident leader, choosing to stay with us despite other options. On her last day, I wrote on her leavers’ t-shirt, hugged her, and encouraged her to keep flying. This is The Inventors.
