What happens during a trial class?

Parents can book a free trial class so their child can experience STEMStar learning before enrolling. The trial session includes: A short orientation for students and parents Hands-on STEM activities led by our teachers An introduction to coding or robotics concepts Teacher feedback at the end of the class If your child enjoys the experience, you can proceed to enrol in a regular weekly course.

How are the course fees structured?

Our programs are organised into three main stages. Trial Class Families can book a free trial lesson to experience our teaching approach. Regular Courses Students attend weekly lessons during the school term. These structured classes help children build STEM and coding skills step by step. Advanced Programs As students gain experience, they can move into advanced STEM courses that explore robotics, Python programming, and artificial intelligence projects.

What is the enrolment process?

Trial Classes Trial classes are free of charge and allow students to explore our learning environment. Regular Courses After the trial, parents can enrol their child in a regular course. Full payment is required to confirm enrolment and secure the class place. Holiday Programs Holiday programs have separate fees and must be paid in full at the time of booking.

What courses does STEMStar offer?
