“I loved the physical experience this tour offered- of showing me where STEAM can take me; but I equally loved being surrounded by girls who thought like me and had similar mindsets and visions.”

Parent Testimonials
“My daughter had a wonderful time last December. It was certainly worth the money we spent. So much more than we expected. She found the group leaders and event instructors caring and helpful. Whole program very exciting and fun. She could not stop talking about it for weeks afterwards. It was nice to see their daily progress on photos and videos via Actura as well. Highly recommend it!”
T. Wickramasinghe Loreto Kirribilli“Everything was well organised and communicated. Flynn had a ball and had his eyes opened to very many new experiences. He benefited greatly from the immersing experience and made new friendships.”
J. Tayles Knox Grammar School“My daughter came home with many stories to tell and is still telling them. This trip exceeded my expectations as I was slightly concerned how she would cope being so far away from home and for such a long time, but she loved every minute of it and it has definitely shaped her motivation for what she would like to do in the future with her studies! Other than the obvious learning aspect she has also learnt resilience and independence, made new friends (whom she is continuing to keep in touch with) and a sense of confidence that she did not have prior to the trip.”
P. Nicholls Presbyterian Ladies' College“Venice rated the experience 10/10 and her description of the different activities she was involved in sounded very rewarding for someone of her age both from a STEM perspective but also having the confidence to participate in such a program at a relatively young age”
D. Gemmola International Grammar School“Thank you to Amy for fielding all our queries and request. Thanks to the two AMAZING group leaders who took the boys on every step of their journey. I would certainly recommend you (and have already) to anyone seeking to send their child on a quest for new learning experiences and one which promotes independence of thought. Well done to all concerned and thank-you!”
C. Wardle St Michaels“I appreciated how thorough the organisation of the expedition was and the excellent communication with parents throughout the whole experience.”

Bridget Ivanhoe Girls Grammer“I loved the physical experience this tour offered – of showing me where STEAM can take me; but I equally loved being surrounded by girls who thought like me and had similar mindsets and visions.”
Jessica St Margaret's School“This experience has been life changing for me. It helped me to realise my goals and guided me by giving me the knowledge and support to allow me to take those steps so I can achieve my goals… It gave me an incredible learning experience to learn outside the classroom and develop practical skills, Not only did I feel very welcomed and an accepted part of both my groups but I also made new friends who i will continue to stay in touch with when the trip ends.”
H. Nicholas Stella Maris College“From the beginning to the end, there were fun activities, amazing people and supportive elders. All of the experiences made you realize how lucky we are to be on this trip. Some of these opportunities are once in a life time and you must take these opportunities with both hands and try your hardest. I have learned never to give up on your dreams and must work hard no matter what others say. Anything is possible no matter how hard your dream may be. We may think we have it all but then there is always more to learn.”
