NEW FOR 2025 - ESCAPE THE SMART HOUSE
Escape The Smart House is a brand-new concept in school challenge workshops which has been devised in partnership with Playroom by SMART Toys & Games Ltd.
Sitting at the front of the hall is The Smart House. Students then have the length of the workshop to try and escape the house by solving a series of hands-on 3D challenges and team skills. Room by room, students aim to solve challenges in their teams, and with each challenged solved, they get part of a clue which will help them unlock a final padlock to escape.

PUZZLE CHALLENGE DAYS
Raise your students' expectations of what they can achieve.
Welcome to one of the most extraordinary educational experiences your students will ever have!
Your students will encounter a variety of challenges, most of which can be solved within a few minutes, but which require collaborative learning skills with a careful strategic planning in order to find a solution. If the temptation to give up starts to appear, the programme teaches students how to persevere, put their own skills to better use as part of a team and overcome difficulties by approaching problems from a different perspective.

MIND MISSIONS
Challenge, Communicate, Engage and Progress
Mind Missions are hands-on maths, thinking and team-building 'expeditions', devised by top educators. Up to 60 students can take part in each 'expedition' (with up to five different ‘expeditions’ per day).
Each team is given an age and ability-appropriate mission to complete. To achieve this, they will need to work together effectively, solving hands-on challenges requiring a wide variety of mathematical and thinking skills, collecting the pieces of information that will enable them to complete the mission.

PUZZLE CHALLENGE DAY 2
An exclusive programme for schools who have previously hosted a Puzzle Challenge Day programme
The second Puzzle Challenge Day programme takes everything a stage further, allowing students to examine how they have made real changes to their learning and taking the development of their thinking and team skills to a new level. This is not just another set of puzzles to try. It is a superb opportunity for your students to see how much they have improved, how much more they can achieve in their school work and how they can use their skills to full effect with a broader, more intricate set of challenges.
