STEAM Summer Camp
My kids had a absolute ball at the camp. Learn loads and was excited to go in every morning highly recommend
Ann, Newcastle West
My son and his friend loved this camp - it is so different to other camps and is very innovative. Everyday they were excited to go in (and this is rare for camps for us!) and they learned a lot without even realising. They are still playing with their homemade smile and I've heard a few words (like "termites"!) that I definitely hadn't heard before! We would do it again, definitely.
Keira, Westport
My child loved this camp! The day was packed with learning through creative exploration as well as fun games and teamwork. Excellently run as well. He can't wait to go back!
Laura, Ballinlough
Our daughter loved the camp. She is so proud of the solar bug & the tshirt she made. She couldn't stop talking about the lego movie she did, and the friends she made. Every day she camp out, full of conversation about all the fun stuff she did, and all the things she learnt. Without a doubt will be trying ti book her back in again next year. She did so many different things, and learnt loads.

Emma, Wicklow
It was super fun and the leaders made my daughter feel welcome. The leaders were super sweet and helped her when she found things difficult with the experiments. Making a rocket was a highlight of the week. Playing Minecraft was interactive with new friends. The overall camp was delightful and making new friends was wonderful.

He was actually up and ready to go each morning before i was and came out every day with a smile on his face.

I was not organised at all this year when it came to booking summer camps for my little girl, so I was thrilled that's I managed to get her into a STEAM camp just around the corner. She loved it from start to finish and came out with a smile on her face every day. The camp leaders were so kind and helpful and my daughter learned a lot while also having fun and making Friends. We will drfibe booking more camps with designer minds in the future.

Angela, Carlow

Orla
My child had a great time at camp. The week was choc-full of experiments, creative robotics, maths (but through Minecraft!) art and story-building, and every day I got an excited rundown of all the fun they had. The best thing was "I want to do that again next year!". What better review can I give than that? Thanks team!
Monica, Newbridge
My son really enjoyed his time at the camp. He made great friends with like minded kids and it gave him such a confidence boost, he really found his tribe. He looked forward to each day. Great selection of activities, all the kids got to do all the activities, unlike other camps where younger kids may not get to experience everything or the groups are so large etc. The price is more expensive than other camps but the quality was definitely there. I would highly recommend the camp and we will be joining again next year. Fun, friendship and learning combined.
Caroline, Gorey
In his words BEST CAMP EVER

Phil, Glanmire
My child likes it, and it's really good to have the opportunity to bring kids to a scientific camp in the Clonmel area! My rating is 8, not 10, just because tablets are allowed during the camp. I do understand that it is the modern world, but I would prefer that my children learn something new from real experiments during this type of camp instead of sitting on a tablet. The price is pretty high, so it should meet expectations, and it would be really good if tablets could be removed in the future.
Vira, Clonmel
Minecraft was great fun...enjoyed creating with Lego. Science experiment interesting. Great fun
designing & colouring T-shirt. Coding challenging but interesting...

Niall, Clonakilty
My son loved this camp because "he got to learn new things and perform cool experiments every day, and on the last day he got to build and launch rockets."
He came home full of news every day and happily went in the door each morning. Apart from making new friends he did learn lots of new stuff. On the last day he asked us to reschedule our holidays so he could go to another week. We will definitely be sending him back again.

They met new friends, they've learn a lot and have unique t-shirts as a gift.
Now we have to sign up for the club!

"This was the best camp EVER! Every day was so exciting, I couldn't wait to get in. We did lego, art, robotics, design, and we made different types of slime and experimented. We even got to make our own robot toothbrush to take home! I loved designing my own t-shirt too, and making friends in my groups and at playtime. I wish I could do this camp every single day!"
Fin (7), Swords
These are great camps for smaller numbers as participants get more 1:1 time with their instructors/leaders. My child got the opportunity to work closely on projects and problem solve with other children they never met before. Great experience for future life, and lots of fun!
Sabrina, Kildare
Reign says the camp was brutally good and the only thing he would change is the duration of it: 9 instead of 5 days :D

I was walking my son in for the last day of camp and he mentioned that he had “finished his first week “. I was a bit confused but it transpired that he thought that the camp was all summer long. He was gutted when I told him it was just for the week! He would have happily spent every day of the summer holidays in the science camp - I had to placate him with the promise that I’ll book him in for the next one that comes up!
Bridget, Carrigaline
My 7 year old was very nervous on day one and watching her confidence grow over the 4 days was incredible. She enjoyed every minute of this camp so much so she didnt want it to be over. She loved the teachersand all of the activities.

My son arrived home every day excited to tell me all about the activities he had completed in the Designer Minds camp. I'm always pushing him to get involved in sports camps but this experience has helped me rethink re: developing the more creative and technical aspects of his personality. Slightly more expensive comoared to other summer camps but well worth it.
Ian, Clonakilty
My 6 year old absolutely loved this Summer Camp.

It got them into an experimental mindset where they are now questioning how things work and why things are as they are. We will be back next year. Thanks you so much.
Patrick,
My two daughters aged 8 and 11 absolutely loved the camp I wasn’t expecting my 11 year old to get as much out of it as she had told me before she started that she would be too old! But when I collected them even after only the first afternoon she said it was so so enjoyable - from the aspects of coding and all their recycling projects and making all sorts of experiments - my younger daughter didn’t want the week to end she was sad leaving the camp on Friday! - the teachers were so pleasant and friendly and so interactive - many thanks for giving them such a great week and I would highly recommend this camp to all ages - we will definitely return for more of these!
Joanne, Dollymount

My son was buzzing every day he came home telling us of things he’d learnt. Really engaging and interactive camp. Very much made science and technology accessible for his age. Delighted I sent him now. He’s flat out doing experiments now in the house!!
Sinead, Athlone
We were a bit unsure as to whether Theo would enjoy this type of camp. But as each day went by Theo enjoyed it more and more. He usually doesn't tell us about his day but we heard all about the cool things he was up to in camp. He learned loads, made friends and had lots of fun. Thank you to all the teachers.
Deirdre, Dundalk
My daughter had so much fun and is very excited to join the weekly classes in September.
Aine, Kerry
My children absolutely loved this Designer Minds Summer camp that run in Athlone. Every day they were so very excited to get ready to make their way there. They advised how much fun it was and how those running the camp were so lovely. There is a very large range of activities and this ensured they never got bored. They were so sad when it ended and asked me if they could go again next year. I have no hesitations whatsoever recommending this camp for kids. Wonderful educational camp and they loved the "bomb" that was made during the science part of the camp!! Thank you so much to all the girls who ran this in Athlone. I have most definitely 3 very happy children after the week of Designer Minds. See you all next year!
Paula Mannion, Athlone

My son Leon had a fantastic time at the steam summer camp. He came home everyday with so many stories and facts he couldn't wait to tell me. He doesn't like every summer camp he has been to and usually has something he doesn't like at them but with this camp he had nothing bad to say and he already can't wait to come back next year. The class has given him a new interest in science and also has gotten him back into Lego and other activities which he jasnt been as interested in lately. The class was organized very well Thank you so much for giving my son and all the children your time and energy and opening up a new world for them to explore.

The amount of varied hands on activities aided a greater understanding to how and why things work. I would Highly recommend these camps to spark and develop interests in all things STEAM.
Anne-Marie,
We were so thrilled to find this camp- it’s like it was designed with our curious 6 year old in mind. She is quite shy but loved every minute, made new likeminded friends and expanded her interests even further. She loves games, particularly minecraft and we were delighted to see this being included in such a positive way. She’s now looking forward to the art camp later in the summer and we’re hoping an afterschools group may come available in Carlow in the future. Thanks so much to Designer Minds- we will be highly recommending your camp!!
Caroline
My daughter really enjoyed the camp. From programming robots to testing food, to learning about circuits, it covered a range of topics that were made relevant to things she herself is interested in. During covid she also completed a number of other designer minds courses online and really got a lot out of them. I am very impressed with their pedagogical approach to learning and couldn't recommend designer minds highly enough.

Carl Pender
Came home everyday with a smile. The slime was a bit hit!
Katherine,
My son loves STEAM anyway and isn’t very sporty so when I discover DesignerMinds did STEAM camps I had to sign him up. He loves school and is actually missing it during the summer break so to send him to a school-type environment with structured small groups was the perfect fit for him. He loved knowing the plan for the next day and couldn’t wait to download at home, the same app they used in camp for coding. He couldn’t wait to share all the details of what the did each day. He was genuinely disappointed that the camp was only 5 days long. Will be looking out for next year’s camp again for sure. Thank you DesignerMinds for such a clever camp idea. We’ll worth the cost to see my son so happy coming home every single day.
Julie
My Rian and Conall loves it the STEAM camp so 100% will do it again next year everyday they both happy and excited and they both love all the campmates and the teachers,,

Anna, Clonmel
As a parent i found it difficult to find a camp which would cater to my child's interests, she is a bright,funny and inquisitive lego enthusiast, whom enjoys challenges and learning new things so I didn't know where to start until I came across Designer minds website. It's ethos and goal to empassion children through STEM activities really captured what I was looking for, so I was delighted when a camp was available this summer. My daughter didn't know anyone there and was made feel very welcome from the beginning and was encouraged throughout the week through all the activities, I know this as she beamed with pride upon collection time and was so eager to return her only complaint being it was just for one week! Everyday she had fun learning new things, expanding on her strengths and existing knowledge and skills. As a parent her experience was everything I could've asked for and more, a massive thank you to you and your team .
Emma, Newbridge
We got to try lots of really fun things, especially the egg drop challenge. We loved coding which we had never tried before. We will definitely go back next year.

Noah has been with Designer Minds for a few years now. We originally tried a summer camp and he loved it so much that we put him on the after school science club every Saturday - he loves every minute of it.
During this camp, he had a small problem , but Liam sorted it in are very calm ,professional way - he was wonderful.
When the camp finished, Noah said that he really missed it and wanted to do it all again the following week.
He can't wait for the classes to begin again.
Of all the summer camps that we had sent him to, he said that Designer Minds was by far the best.
Keep it going guys - you are all amazing!

Both my kids (6&9) had a brilliant time. They had loads of fun and learned a lot. The tiny robots they got to make and take home on Friday were a big hit. The camp was well organized and thoughtfully designed to be safe and comfortable while meeting all the Covid requirements. The communication from the camp was clear and helpful and I appreciated having a number to ring.

This is honestly the best camp my daughter (9) has ever attended. She loved the coding and the experiment where the egg was dropped without breaking (she came straight home to demonstrate!) Roisin, Tom and all the camp tutors were so kind and friendly and every day my daughter came home with smiles and chat (and a new friend, which was a big deal!) A really fun, engaging and interesting camp with a difference where children are encouraged, challenged and supported. She has already asked to return next year, thank you all.
Andrew, Tramore
A brilliant camp, especially for kids who aren’t sporty - this offers an excellent alternative with a wide variety of STEM activities. One very happy 10yr old who DEFINITELY wants to attend again next summer!

Gemma, Artane
Micheal loved the camp and it was made even more special by Liam the young gentleman in charge of Micheal's group. Micheal has a diagnosis of ADHD and ASD and Liam was especially encouraging, kind and understanding to Micheal. Micheal would come home and tell me what he did that day and also about the kind word of support that were offered by Liam when he noticed Micheal getting anxious , embarrassed or upset. To have the ability to notice this alone is amazing but to be able to address it in this manner in a camp setting is a true credit to designer minds and the staff they employ. Thank you Liam and Designer Minds.
Marie, Ennis
The kids absolutely loved this camp and were disappointed that it didn't continue on Saturday!
The camp carers were enthusiastic about the camp and the kids and looked after them with real care. And they also learned so much.

Daniel loved it from day 1. He was eager to go every single day and looked forward to it. It was fun, imaginative and learning without realising it.
Daniel has been to other summer camps but it was a task to get him to go everyday but not at designer minds.
We will definitely be booking for next year. Great camps.

For a child who loves music...he made music using technology. He loves Robots... he made a Robot and used wiring and technology to make his Robot move.. and there was much more...Fantastic Staff all of teaching back round.

Reggie finds it hard to mix with other kids his age due to his Asperger’s syndrome. I was worried about his week at designer minds camp due to him mixing with other children but he absolutely loved it and couldn’t wait every morning to go in. He told me so much about his week at camp and thoroughly enjoyed his week with you all. Even if he doesn’t get the voucher I just wanted to let you all know at the camp you know u made a difference. Thanks again ?
Holly, Limerick
My daughter absolutely loved the camp. It's great to have a summer camp that keeps their brains active and is fun while at the same time being educational! The teachers were all fantastic too. We missed out on a place last summer as I left it too late to book so I made sure to reserve a place early this year, and I'm so glad that I did. We will definitely be back on the STEAM train again next year!

Aisling, Ballinlough
I am truely blown away by the reaction of my 7 year old son during this week of camp. I have tried plenty of camps but all were sports activities, which he did but never truly loved. I ask him all the time, what did you do today? And i get, i cant remember or nothing, but not this week , when i picked him and his friends up all this week it was a battle between them to tell me all they did and showing me experiments. Thanks to the bacteria experiment he now washes his hands without the grump too. I was also very impressed with how organised everything is and your teachers are wonderful, one teacher in particular this week, April, i observed interacting with the children on several occasions was especially good, patient and made me feel my little man was in good hands, too many camps i feel expect you to just drop your children off and forget about them, i didn't worry once this week, so a week off for me too. Keep up the great work Designer Minds, we will be back over and over again and will be recommending you to everyone, hayley.
Hayley, Malahide

My Daughter loved the camp and the opportunity it gave her to explore new technology, new scientific concepts and to be with like minded friends.

My daughter (10) got a lot out of the camp. She really enjoyed the various activities and was very proud to show her creations and share what she had learned each day. The camp was a great introduction to some topics she didn't have much knowledge of previously, such as robotics and engineering, and is a good starting point for her to learn more about them. The first thing she said when I picked her up on the last day was that she wants to go back next year.

Irene, Clondalkin
Cait learned so much and had so much fun at the same time. Everyday she excitedly shared her learning and her experiences. Amazingly it is the first camp (or anything) she has done without another friend or her sister and not once did she even remark on it, so interested was she. I am delighted and I would recommend the camp to all parents.
Denise, Clondalkin
'It was challenging and I would like to go next year,' said Lochlan age 8
Margaret, Clonmel
For a child that was very shy and nervous about going in 1st day as he knew of no one going that he knew. Well he came out and I asked him what he did today? he told me they worked on making bacteria and made a movie. And before I asked was he going to go tomorrow he told me what they would be doing tomorrow . So that just told me the nerves had long gone.
John, Listowel
Sarah loved camp- was really engaged and interested?
Ruth, Clonmel
This camp has opened up a whole new world of wonder and knowledge for my girls. They came home telling us learned facts about technology and the world. I'm glad that they got a taste of engineering, coding, science, robotics, design and much more. They now have dreams of learning more in these fields and even working in these industries when they grow up.
Esther, Limerick

Very well run, very respectful camp leaders.

I was delighted, as I didn't even think that he'd go to the camp. He can shy away from things like this. It was a great experience for both of us. Really pleased that there is a camp like this offering science, design etc. Thank You
Jill, Skerries
Aoibh had a super week at the Designer Minds summer camp.

Helen, Athlone
After day one of camp my son Ryan said he wanted to go back next year. He was beaming every day after camp and excited each morning. He said the camp flew as they were having so much fun each day and learning so much fun things. At the end of the week ryan thanked me for sending him to designer minds camp, he said was the best camp he ever did and not only talked about next years return, talked about year 3 . This was Ryan's 1st designer mind experience and he learned knowledge , he made friends, he had super fun. I would highly recommend designer mind camps. Just seeing ryans eyes light up talking about his day is proof that designer minds camp is truly amazing. A very happy parent. Annmarie
Annmarie, Carrigtwohill
I was unsure how my daughter would enjoy this as she is more a running around climbing things kind of child. I needn't have. She loved every minute and looked forward to what they were going to do the next day. A wide variety of activities for the mind pitched at a level she could understand and enjoy. I would highly recommend this camp.

Maria, Rochestown
Amelia loved her time at Designer Minds. In particular, she really enjoyed playing with the robots, making her own t-shirt & the Banana DNA!!! She made new friends and learned some cool new things in the process! In her own words she gave it 9.5 out of 10! She only took a half point away because she didn't want it to end after a week!!!! Bravo to all the team at Designer Minds. She will be back again :)

It was wonderful to see her joy and delight build over the week. I highly recommend this truly fun and worthwhile camp. Thanks a million.
Amy, Tullamore
My son loved every second and came out everyday so relaxed and with a big smile on his face. Considering he was quite shy and anxious going in this is so nice to see. He loves being creative but had no interest in science until his week in Designer Minds, he learned so many interesting things and now can't wait for more science when he gets to secondary school. The staff were super sweet and enthusiastic and made my son feel included from the minute we got there. I wish I had sent him years ago! I definitely recommend to all.
Michelle, Tuam
This was my son's second year attending the Designer Minds Summer Camp and it was the first thing he asked about once they got school holidays. I was happy to see that there were also some variations from the previous year. He loved every day of it and has continued the imaginative play at home.

I love that they mixed everything together and didn't just focus on one subject. I especially liked making the Lego film. My older sister did a film making course and was impressed by how much we did in a day. I love the computer coding I never did before too.

Kimberly, Templemore
My loves absolutely loves Designer Camps. He was very excited every morning before he went into the camp and very happy when he collected him. He is a gifted child and we are constantly looking for camps/courses for him. He needs to be challenged in the areas he is good at( Science, Technology and Maths) and Designer Minds covers his needs.
Marina, Knocklyon
My son was eager to go to camp in the morning. Usually he dilly dallys. When I asked him how good his day went, he said a definite good. This is coming from a child who might begrudge me a, "kind of", for an answer. He asked if he do it again next year. Big improvement from saying he never wants to do another camp again.
Tina, Galway
My 12 year old loved this camp and says he definitely wants to go again, thanks.

Ben couldn't wait to get started each day, and we really enjoyed hearing about the challenges and discoveries of the day on the way home. Coaches interested in the children, knowledgeable on their subjects and made everything fun. Ben gave the camp 10/10!

Kathy, Gorey
My son has never taken part in a camp before as he has autism and normally wouldn't do well in this kind of environment, or so we thought. When we picked him up after his first day he could not stop talking about what he did and more importantly what they were going to be doing for the rest of the week.. He loved the content and was captivated straight away. I cannot say enough about the camp staff in Newbridge, they were fantastic and are the reason my son completed his week. I cannot thank them enough. Would definitely recommend this camp.
Deirdre, Newbridge
First time trying this camp and so glad we did. Darragh had a ball. Came home excited and full of stories each day. Definitely recommend!

In all of the years that they have attended different summer camps this is the first time that they insisted that I sign them back up for the next summer. They both enjoyed every day & are wearing their T-Shirts with pride.

Christian, Carrigaline
My 10 year old did the designer minds summer camp for the first time this year (2019) and was very impressed he loved designing his t-shirt, the agar plate was a big hit with him, he loved the earthquake experiments as well as building the
roll-a-coster, to mention just a few of the things that they did. The staff were great and interacted very well with the children. If I was to pick something to complain about it would only be that there is no classes throughout the year close enough to attend so we will be waiting for next summers camp.

But they weren't long changing their minds - Thanks to Designer Minds! It opened their minds up to other interesting things in life outside of Sports, the girls teaching the camp were fantastic, communication was excellent with the parents regarding each days schedule of events.

Both girls had amazing time. They asked me to give you the best review ever. They replicated at home activities they did in the camp bar coding the robot (as we do not have one yet) and I do not have equipment for DNA testing.

I was delighted with the Designer Minds camp my son went to this week. He finished camp and the first comment from him was "that was brilliant camp and please book me in for next year". The camp gave my son interests he had never had the chance to do before. Thank you for a very enjoyable week. See you next year.

Mary, Celbridge
Katie was really excited about all of the activities and enjoyed going in every day and meeting new people. I think it's important for girls to be interested in science and technology so it was good to see her enjoying every single activity and being proud of her achievements. I think it was making slime that originally caught her eye in the advert for this camp but I think completing the other activities actually gave her more satisfaction. Plus she now has a new personalised t-shirt to remind her of the week. Thank you I think she will be back.
Maura, Mallow
My daughter really enjoyed the camp this year. She particularly liked the slime making and coding and made lots of friends. Well done to all.

Frances, Limerick
My son has had a fantastic week at this creative, informative camp. It has sparked an interest in science & experimenting, which I know he will now build on. He was amazed at how simple technology can be, even if the end result seems complex.
Susan Moran, Portlaoise Camp.
With no previous experience of many of the topics I was anxious my daughters would be lost on some of the projects but I needn't have worried. The leaders were super, they made everything so much fun and doable. Every day scored 10 out of ten.
Thank you.
Thank you.

Gill, Portlaoise
Both my boys absolutely adored this camp & together with their class mates, each declared it the 'best camp ever!' The varied topics over the week, from robotics to coding to design to Lego, the week's activity was well planned out & everyone knew what they would be doing the next day and enjoyed it all! From a parent's point of view, the fact that the camp started on time & did not end before 2pm (as some camps do) was also impressive. The clear and consistent nut free messaging was also appreciated. The camp leaders were warm and engaging & the kids learned loads whilst having fun! Thank you to all at Designer Minds, hope to see more camps in Dublin!

Aged 7, 8 & 10, all 3 were delighted everyday to tell me the new and interesting things they had either made, learned, experienced or heard being discussed. As a parent I was thrilled to see their enthusiasm for a new kind of experience. From making a lego movie to rocket making, t-shirt design to science experiments, what more could a child want. I am so glad I sent the kids...

I wish I could shrink myself so that I could attend the Camp too!!!

He came home beaming every day full of chat about making, creating, designing and programming. He is a naturally curious child and loves to learn; Designer Minds was pitched perfectly for him.

Thank you!

My child found the camp to be a great experience, consolidating the subjects tackled throughout the last term. He made a few friends, actively participated in all activities and most enjoyed the Lego to make a bridge and Robot coding to level 5. Would thoroughly recommend this camp for any child looking to grasp the concepts of STEAM and as an alternative to sport based activities through the summer.

Clare, Kenmare
A great range of activities - my son came home every day full of enthusiasm about the day
Grainne, Kinsale
This is the second year my daughter has attended the Designer Minds camp in Kenmare. This camp offers a refreshing alternative to all other camps, which although are enjoyable are very physical in nature and exhausting. Designer Minds mentally challenged my daughter provided her with really interesting games and play which were very educational. She was buzzing each day when I collected her and was all chat about what she had learned that day and I found myself envious :-D I would love for an after school camp to start up in Kenmare. I couldn't recommend Designer Minds highly enough. The camp leaders were very friendly and kind to my daughter and were extremely careful about ensuring children were collected and signed out before letting leave the room.
Natalie, Kenmare

It was wonderful to see that spark in his eye each day.
T. O'C, Killorglin
Very enjoyable week and good fun ideas.

My 9 year old really enjoyed the week and the different topic each day kept him interested. As he was just 9 he did have to make an effort to keep as a lot of the content was aimed at 5th-6th class but it didnt put him off . Would definitely do it next year .

Leon loves coming here every week, he has the best time
Audrey
The classes are great, my daughter now wants to be an engineer to build toys. She especially loved Lego Technic and the fact that she could build her own devices. Like the battery spider. The only one thing I miss as a parent is more direct information after the classes. Some kind of summary of what has been done, some pictures of a child etc. Because it is difficult to get proper information from directly from a child. And it would be great if the classes were a bit longer. That is what my child is saying. Thank you :)
Marta
Different and very diverse activities ,should be a part of primary school cycle .
Anna,
My son loved going to Steam class every Saturday, he enjoyed that there is a new topic each week and was excited to show us what had done each week in class. Well done to all those involved! It is a great club for kids to meet each other and enjoy Steam subjects in a fun and enthusiastic way.

Ríseal’s favourite part of any week is the Designer Minds club on Wednesday. What she’s learning in the clubs is incredible from coding to developing her interest in engineering & maths - and all taught in a fun way using tools she wouldn’t have access to anywhere else.
Ruth, Killiney
My 3 children attend classes every week and they really enjoy them. As a primary school teacher myself, I realise that they are not covering in depth Stem subjects at school due to lack of resources, time constraints etc, so I am delighted they are getting such a wonderful opportunity to do so through the Designer Minds Clubs. The classes are innovative, interactive and most importantly fun!!
Emer, Limerick

Angela, Midleton
My 11 year old son completed a term with Designer Minds after school clubs. He really loved going each week though he was a bit hesitant at the start as he did not know anybody else attending. The leaders were so helpful and friendly and he settled in immediately. He made new friends and loved the variety each week and particularly liked learning about coding. He will definitely attend again.
Yvonne, Midleton
Designer Minds after-school clubs are great in stimulating topics of interest that they might otherwise not cover in school and in a hands-on fun way. We find it very rewarding to go through the material (which is excellently put together) with our children a few days before the club. As a family we learn together. The kids are lucky enough to then attend the club and put into practice what they've read about and discussed. They are always excited to go, always come out with smiles and full of new information to share or something to show us. We've always said we would not push our agenda, but follow the children's lead in their learning. They love Designer Minds and it's never a question whether they would like to sign up for the next one or not. Resounding YES's from this family :)
Céline, Wicklow
We were delighted to see such an opportunity in our area. Our daughter thoroughly enjoyed the hour each week and it's great that they are provided with some preparatory work; some invaluable bonding time and also gives confidence in having some knowledge what is happening in the following lesson. She's already booked in for the next tern.
Lorraine, Arklow
My son really loved designer minds. He looked forward to it every week. It’s nice for them to have an interest other than sport that’s both fun and creative. Hoping he’ll get into the next term as he’s on the waiting list.

With a new stem project each week she is guided through a new process. The teachers are terrific. It is inspiring and powerful teaching her so many new skills.
Sue, Donnycarney
Emily loved her time at designer minds and immediately wanted to sign up for summer camps. She especially loved the slime week and the light up Christmas card that she made, and I loved hearing her talk about electrical circuits and coding, and just using words she probably didn't know previous.
Edel, Kildare
my 11 year old son loves going to Designer minds ashe has loved every week of it. He isn't into sports and finding an after school class to really suit him has been difficult It is the only after school that he has consistently loved to go to. All the leaders are very helpful and friendly . We would highly recommend
Alison, Wicklow
Its given my daughter a lot of confidence
Jacqueline, Carrigaline
Joshua reluctantly went along to the 1st Designer Minds class in Blessington. He skipped out & couldn’t wait to go back the following week. The variety of activities, kept a child who can’t sit still , very interested. He’s asking when the next term starts. Great insight for primary kids into Science & Technology.

Anne, Ballinlough
Fantastic fun experiments that the kids love doing while stealthily learning biology, chemistry and IT skills. There is some prep for each class but this is really easy to cover by watching a few videos. Its the sort of modern learning that will probably be used in the official educational curriculum in years to come.
Sarah, Clontarf
My Daughter really enjoyed Designer Minds. It was her first term and looked forward to it every Tue. She did so many cool things that I wanted to go to it myself!!!

Couldn't recommend Designer Minds highly enough. My kids loved every class they attended. They learn different aspects of STEAM every week from learning about the human body to creating slime, to augmented reality, building robots and making electric circuits for their christmas card and so much more. The teachers are fantastic and most importantly the kids had so much fun learning and got to make loads new friends. Every child should be doing this. And il definitely continue to send my kids to Designer minds.
Caroline, Killarney
This has been the best after school activity we’ve come across. The equipment is top notch, the instructors are passionate, cool and really good at explaining things, making it fun and engaging the children.

Sheila, Ennis
My son absolutely loved the club! He went in not knowing anyone but loves each & every session. My son can get quiet overwhelmed with change and in unstructured times. There was never an issue in Listowel because the two teachers were amazing. What helped the most was the topics that were emailed the week previous to prepare children what is coming. He has issues in the line in school at times but this wasn’t a problem because the teachers always put him first out of the session. The hour was very structured and every week he ran out the door at home to go to designer minds. Couldn’t recommend it highly enough because so inclusive. We will be back in September!!
Elaine, Listowel
