Fuelling Tomorrow's Creators & Thinkers

At Rocket, we believe the future belongs to those who can think critically, act creatively, and care deeply. For over 16 years, we've revolutionised early education, through experiential, design-led learning to foster academic prowess, curiosity, and collaboration.

The Rocket Approach is human-centred, research-informed, and future-focused. We balance hands-on enquiry, agency, and freedom to explore with guidance to grow. At our Pre-Preps, early years education isn’t an afterthought and learning with us is never one-size-fits-all. Where others see students, we see inventors, thinkers and creators.
