Einstein said: “Imagination is more important that knowledge.”

Technology has emerged as one of the greatest factors affecting change in our lives. Hands On has developed a solution that provides children with the necessary skills to approach a technological society with confidence.

Piaget said: “The principal goal of education is to create men who are capable of doing things, not simply of repeating what other generations have done… men who are creative, inventive, who discover.”

Stimulating learning through the use of creativity, imagination and manipulatives is considered by many experts to be more relevant than ever before. Hands On involves presenting children with a need, challenge or problem and supplying them with a variety of materials that they can use, put together or construct something with which to solve the problem at hand.

We encourage real research, individual learning styles and true co-operation often using the actual school themes as our vehicle. We present children with a range of experiences and situations that help them to develop their design and technology capabilities.

At Hands On we understand that effective learning is driven by these emotions.

Curiosity.  Excitement.  Concentration.  Pride.  Joy.
