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!

Schedule

(Hover for details)

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.

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!

My most significance experience working at the 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.

Najma Ali

Future Primary School Teacher

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.

In one of the schools where I worked, I taught a class with several boys and one girl, Inês, who was in Year 1. She was small, shy, and usually built projects while sitting on my lap. One day, she completed an entire project on her own, and her confidence soared. The class's perception of her changed, and so did her self-view. Over four years, I watched Inês grow into a confident, responsible leader and a key supporter in my lessons. Despite her mother's suggestion to try other activities, Inês always chose to stay. On her last day of school, I wrote a message on her leavers' t-shirt, hugged her, and encouraged her to keep flying. Inês hugged me back, left without speaking or looking back. This is The Inventors.

Future Primary School Teacher

Hey everyone! I’m Ishan, and I’ve been with The Inventors since January, creating fun projects like the lift-o-fun. I prepare with my postgrad friends on Sundays in our hostel, turning it into a tradition. The best part is teaching the kids and blending in science. It refreshes my basics and boosts my public speaking. We’ve grown from a dozen schools to being all over London, and playing football with the kids during breaks is priceless. Big thanks to Manuel and the creative team in Portugal for their amazing projects. Joining The Inventors has been a heartwarming adventure filled with discoveries and laughter. Can’t wait to see where this journey goes next!

Ishan Vats

Mechanical Engineer

I worked with The Inventors for 5 years in schools, holiday camps, and workshops. In one school, I taught a shy Year 1 girl named Inês. Initially, she struggled and built projects on my lap, but one day she completed a project on her own. Her confidence grew, and so did her classmates' respect for her. Over four years, Inês transformed into a confident, responsible leader and a great supporter in my lessons. Despite her mother's suggestions, she chose to stay with us throughout her Primary Education. 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. On the last day of school, I wrote a message on her leavers' t-shirt, gave her a hug, and told her to keep flying. Inês hugged me and left the room without speaking and without looking back.

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!

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!

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.

(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.
