Absolutely. Safety is our top priority in every workshop. All hands-on activities, including Rocketry, Telescope Making, and Satellite Design, are conducted under close supervision by trained facilitators with extensive experience in science education. We use safe, approved materials and maintain controlled, structured environments for each session. Facilitators follow strict protocols, including pre-launch checks and step-by-step guidance for all experiments. This ensures that students can explore, create, and test their projects confidently while enjoying a secure, educational, and exciting hands-on learning experience.

Students leave the workshop with far more than knowledge—they gain confidence, practical skills, and a sense of achievement. They learn to design, build, and test their own projects, from rockets and satellites to telescopes, applying scientific principles in real-world contexts. The process instills curiosity, critical thinking, and problem-solving abilities, fostering a hands-on, creative mindset. Each student also receives a certificate of completion, reinforcing their achievement and inspiring continued interest in STEM, innovation, and exploration long after the workshop concludes.

The main focus of our workshops is on providing an engaging, hands-on experience at an affordable price. While take-home kits are not included in the base workshop, schools have the option to arrange customized kits for students at an additional cost. Our coordinators assist in organizing optional souvenirs, learning materials, or project kits. This flexibility allows schools to enhance the workshop experience according to their budget, while ensuring that students still gain maximum learning, confidence, and enjoyment from building and experimenting during the live sessions.

Workshop durations vary depending on the activity and complexity of the session. Shorter workshops, such as Telescope Making or Rocketry, run for approximately 2.5 to 3 hours, suitable for half-day formats. Longer, in-depth programs like the Solar System Tour may take up to 5 hours, covering multiple concepts and practical exercises. Each session is structured to include interactive instruction, hands-on assembly, and guided exploration, providing students with a complete, immersive experience. This ensures they can fully understand the science behind each project while actively participating and learning by doing.

All workshops are conducted by Space Trek’s expert facilitators, trained extensively in astronomy, space science, and STEM education. Each facilitator is guided by Dr. Vinod Kumar, a NASA-Certified Coach, ISRO Space Tutor, and World Robot Olympiad Mentor for Team India. This ensures that students receive professional guidance while learning safely. Our facilitators provide hands-on mentoring, step-by-step instructions, and encouragement throughout the activities, making each session engaging, informative, and inspiring. Students not only complete the projects successfully but also gain exposure to global STEM teaching standards.

Yes, customization is a key feature of our hands-on workshops. Schools can select workshop topics, adjust durations, and tailor difficulty levels to fit their specific goals, whether it’s a science-week highlight, STEM club session, or grade-wide program. Space Trek ensures all adjustments maintain the core learning outcomes while perfectly aligning with your academic schedule and student needs. This flexibility allows schools to maximize participation, engagement, and educational impact, while giving students a uniquely curated experience that balances fun, creativity, and practical scientific learning.

Booking a workshop is simple and straightforward. Schools can fill out our online form or contact the Space Trek team directly via call. You can select your preferred workshop—Rocketry, Telescope Making, Satellite Design, Solar System Tour, or Marsquest—and we handle the planning, logistics, and materials. Our team ensures a smooth setup, guides facilitators, and provides marketing support for parents. From scheduling to delivery, every step is organized for a stress-free, professional, and educational experience that guarantees students enjoy hands-on learning while achieving real scientific outcomes.
