a space to explore
Bemke Explore consists of programmes, camps and activities in which children and young people try new things, test themselves through action and get to know their strengths better. They are supported by tutors, mentors and peers who create an environment that strengthens development.
We foster an entrepreneurial attitude: critical thinking, creativity, collaboration, communication, self-regulation and the courage to take initiative. What matters more than the outcome itself is engagement, reflection and consciously building one’s own path.
The programmes are tailored to age and stage of development and are also open to people from outside Bemke institutions.

Day camps are 5-day holiday programmes that make use of the campus space and facilities — from well-equipped laboratories and a workshop to a photography and sewing studio, greenhouse and FarmLab.
During the programme, children experience well-rounded development through sports, creative activities and time in nature. Under the guidance of experienced staff, they learn to build relationships with others and take on challenges that help them discover their talents and develop agency.

ANIA
DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMME GRADUATE
It was something just for me — I could work on my interests, discover my strengths and think about what I am truly passionate about. Thanks to that, I understood myself better and decided to study psychology.

SUMMER CAMP PARTICIPANT
The camp made me more eager to meet new people. I feel more open. I made new friends. I liked the different programme tasks and games. I realised that you can have a great time without a phone.
