ABOUT THE EVENT

Juja Preparatory & Senior Schools is proud to invite parents, students, and the wider community to a one-of-a-kind experience — the Aviation Demystified Open Day happening on Tuesday, February 24th from 8:00 AM on the school grounds.

 

 

This is not a typical open day. This is an immersive Aviation & STEM experience designed to open young minds to the exciting world of aviation, science, technology, and future careers that quite literally take flight.

✈️ What makes this Open Day extraordinary?

For many learners, aviation is something they only see in the sky. On this day, we bring aviation down to the ground — right into the hands and eyes of students.

Visitors will experience:

  • Live helicopter flight experience from the school grounds

  • Flight simulation sessions for aspiring pilots

  • Pilot meet & greet interactions

  • Exciting aviation and STEM displays

  • A captivating planetarium experience

  • Entertainment and student performances

This event is carefully designed to demystify aviation and help learners understand that careers in aviation, aerospace, engineering, and STEM are not distant dreams — they are achievable pathways with the right foundation.

🚁 A helicopter landing at school?

Yes. And not for display.

Students will witness and take part in a real helicopter flight experience, creating a powerful, unforgettable moment that connects classroom learning to real-world possibilities. It’s a bold demonstration of how Juja Preparatory & Senior Schools goes beyond textbooks to provide experiential learning.

🧠 Aviation meets STEM education

Aviation is one of the best real-life applications of STEM:

  • Physics in flight
