CONCEPT
STEAM Lab activities focus on sparking curiosity within children, aiming to stimulate the Little Scientists that they are so they can explore and build their Future Lab. All students will be given a card before they start their journey through the STEAM program track. Each time they successfully finish their activity, they will receive a stamp on their card, which should be full by the end of their STEAM day.
As Albert Einstein once said: ‘Everyone is a genius’; through each day’s educational journey, each student takes a step closer towards unleashing the potential of their genius!

SCIENCE LAB
'Little Ms. Curious’, Marie Curie, described herself to be 'less curious about people and more curious about ideas.’ With that in mind, we aim to engage the scientific side of our students testing their ideas with experimentation.
In our lab, we will be concocting our own chemical mixtures and exploring different elements so we can unravel the secrets and wonders of life! We will be drawing new conclusions through experiments, to unleash the scientist within each student and help them ’become the bearers of the torch of discovery in our quest for knowledge’ as ’Mr.Universe’, Stephen Hawking did.
technology LAB
Students are filled with excitement, and charged up like they were filled with electricity when they enter the tech lab! Here we take a deep dive into understanding our developing modern world, full of interesting new technologies. We will investigate everything that sparks our curiosity; and as Alan Turing, ‘Mr. AI’, proposed, we will consider the question: ’ Can machines think?’
The students will take part in making their own little, futuristic robots. Who knows, they could be the next great inventors of technology like the phones in our hands, or the planes we fly in! Just as ’Ms. Astronaut’, Margaret Hamilton said: ’Learning by being and doing.’
Engineering LAB
To become an engineer, you have to create something; so let's get into the next level of exploration. Here, the students’ minds will be encouraged to create and invent, making them little engineers. As ‘Mr. Electricity' Nikola Tesla said, ‘Invention is the most important product of man’s creative brain.’ The students will have the capability to create anything they wish, from woodwork to machinery, as long as they create a completely unique invention!
Throughout this lab and the creation of their own inventions, the students are reminded that, as ‘Ms. Architect’ Zaha Hadid said: ‘There are 360 degrees, so why stick to one?’ Whether it be made of LEGO, wood, or otherwise; we want the students’ minds to work to make a piece that they will be proud of, and could even be known internationally one day!
art LAB
Coloring outside the line can be art, but as ‘Mr. Messy’ Wassily Kandinsky said, ‘everything starts from a dot’. Life is a canvas, so let’s decorate it! Fill it in with as many colors and materials as you can find. This way our students can learn how to communicate in a universal language, one that doesn't use words.
Through the addition of Art in the STEAM Lab, students get to explore a variety of materials and styles to create a mesmerizing piece of artwork. In this part of the lab, we will be experimenting with the concept of what is a piece of art, showing all the ways in which the students may express themselves, without even having to use the English language, but rather the language of art. Like ‘Mr. Abstract’ Pablo Picasso said, ‘Every child is an artist’; we just have to encourage that artist to come alive!

mathematics LAB
Math is encountered in almost every facet of daily life and we have to use it almost everywhere we go. The amazing thing is, that math is the same in every language worldwide! So, let’s put our minds together, and explore the world using logic with hands-on experiences that will help connect all the other areas of STEAM education! We can connect math to other areas by modeling geometrical shapes or calculating the materials needed for a certain experiment. We will also work on our mathematical intelligence with equations and learning about logic.
Like the infamous mathematician and logician Leonhard Euler said, ‘Logic is the foundation of the certainty of all the knowledge we acquire.’ Finally, we will always remember to use our newfound mathematical skills with confidence, remembering as the great Persian mathematician and master of algorithms Al-Khwarizmi taught us, we will search for the unknown.
english LAB
Let's begin our journey into the STEAM LAB world by opening the doors to the ENGLISH Lab. To deepen their knowledge and understanding of each subject in STEAM LAB, this will be the first step for each child.
Worksheets are chosen individually for each child’s level and a vocabulary is chosen daily with a focus on each lab’s ‘topic of the day’ that will ensure that every student is prepared for the next step of their STEAM Lab journey.
