Class Description

At Young Innovators Club, our Drone Club introduces children to the exciting world of drone technology through hands-on learning, guided practice, and structured challenges. Children will learn how to safely operate drones, starting with the basics of take-off, landing, and control, before progressing to more advanced manoeuvres and racing techniques. As their confidence grows, they’ll take part in obstacle courses and team-based challenges that develop precision, coordination, and quick thinking. Beyond flying, we explore the technology behind drones — helping children understand how they work, how they are used in real-world industries, and the principles of engineering and problem-solving that make flight possible. Our sessions are designed to build: Confidence and independence Hand-eye coordination and spatial awareness Teamwork and communication skills Interest in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering & Maths) All activities are delivered in a safe, structured environment, and led by a CAA-certified instructor, ensuring children learn responsibly while having fun. Whether your child is a complete beginner or ready to race, our Drone Club offers an engaging and future-focused experience where learning truly takes flight.
