Beyond Academics

On the field, every challenge is a chance to learn new things.

That is why sports are a mandatory part of your syllabus, from Pre-K to Grade 12

Sports at Inventure is where skill meets character. Beyond physical fitness, sports develop teamwork, resilience, discipline, and leadership — qualities that carry far beyond the field.

From team games like football, basketball, and volleyball to individual disciplines such as athletics and badminton, students train with qualified coaches and learn performance, preparation, and perseverance. Inter-house competitions, fixtures with partner schools, and seasonal tournaments build healthy competition and collective pride.

Kindergarten

The program focuses on building locomotive and manipulative skills, introducing young learners to sports and fitness and the fundamental skills of team and individual sports.

Grades 1-4

At this Grade level, the program is about building foundational skills for multiple sports.
Learners will receive training in 6 sports – Athletics, Basketball, Cricket, Football, Table Tennis & Tennis by rotation in their assigned groups. Swimming is done separately as an independent class in the time table. We also implement functional movement literacy through Parkour moves with Calisthenics Rig Extension for parkour moves and slackline pillars near the Sports Gazebo.

Grades 5 to 12
(PE & Sports)

The focus in these years is specialisation in at least 2 sports and also implementation of animal movement literacy and Parkour moves. Learners choose 2 Sports: Athletics, Basketball, Cricket, Football, Swimming, Table-Tennis, Tennis and an introduction to Ultimate Frisbee for grades 9 to 12.

After-School Sports Program

Grade 3-12

The After School Program coaches students from Grades 3-12 in Athletics, Basketball, Cricket, Football, Swimming, Tennis and Table Tennis with an emphasis on specialisation in these sports at no extra charge. Our coaches are well qualified (NASM, IYCA, AIFF, AFC, Premier Skills, Auswim, ITF & USPTR, etc.) to deliver this program at the highest level.

Buses will ply to selected points in the city after regular school hours to accommodate the learners who have stayed back for after school sports. School teams will stay back compulsorily twice a week.

At Inventure, the arts are an integral part of the curriculum. Through music, dance, art and more, children absorb and germinate life skills like cooperative learning, roleplay, and inner reflection, and are given a chance to explore their unique talent and potential to shine.

Dance

Our ‘Dance Active’ curriculum blends Indo-jazz, hip-hop, and contemporary styles. Early Years and Primary learners build confidence, rhythm, and musicality while learning dance history and basic choreography. Middle and Senior School students refine technique, develop choreography skills, and perform in musicals, assemblies, and inter-school events – including the Annual Music Production.

Music

From Kindergarten onward, learners create, perform, and respond to music, following the Furtado School of Music curriculum. Well-equipped studios support singing and instruments, with regular Class Jams, assemblies, and active participation in the Annual Musical Production.

Yoga

Primary learners explore Yogic Science, mindfulness, and the principles of Yamas and Niyamas through stories and practice. By Grade 5, students begin asanas and meditation, fostering mind-body balance, personal well-being, and inner growth.`

Visual Arts

Visual Arts at Inventure gives students a rich, hands-on introduction to 2D and 3D art, from drawing and painting to sculpture, photography, printmaking, and digital media. Learners build visual literacy, creative confidence, and artistic skill across age groups.

Inventure Academy's Full Scale, Student-Run Creative Production

Every year, Inventure stages a large-scale original musical production that is entirely conceived, designed, and executed by students. What audiences see on stage is the final act of a months-long, school-wide project that brings together storytelling, music, performance, design, technology, operations, and sustainability into one shared creative endeavour.

The Annual Production runs like a professional creative organisation, with students taking ownership across every part of the process.

Story & Direction

Students in the scriptwriting team develop the story, dialogue, and structure of the production in collaboration with the directors.

Music & Performance

Music students compose, arrange, and perform for the show, often contributing to lyrics and musical design. Performers act, sing, and dance, and also participate in shaping choreography and movement.

Design & Costume

Costume design students conceptualise and create costumes for the entire cast. Art students design and build props, sets, and stage décor.

Media & Technology

Media students create video content and visuals used in the production, including material for LED backdrops and projections. Photography and video students document and cover the event.

Maker & Engineering

Maker Space students design and build mechanical and automated stage props, solving real engineering and design challenges.

Sustainability & Operations

Waste management students plan and execute waste-reduction and recycling systems for the event, including community sales of recycled materials. Cooking students plan and prepare food for long production days.

At Inventure, we believe that education must prepare students not just to do well in school, but to navigate the world beyond it with confidence, judgment, and empathy. The Wider World programme is designed to connect classroom learning with real people, real work, and real contexts, helping students understand how knowledge, skills, and values play out in everyday life.

Through a carefully curated range of experiences, including internships, fieldwork, workshops, guest interactions, civic platforms such as Model United Nations and Youth Parliament, and long-term impact initiatives, students encounter diverse perspectives, professions, and social realities. These experiences challenge them to step outside familiar environments, think independently, engage with complexity, and develop a deeper understanding of the society and world they are growing into. Wider World is, at its core, about learning for life, not just for examinations.

On Campus Programmes

Changemaker Challenge

The Changemaker Challenge (CMC) invites students to take on real, messy social and environmental problems and turn bold ideas into meaningful action. It’s a structured journey of research, testing, iteration, mentorship, and impact that builds agency, empathy, and real-world problem-solving skills.

Inventure Youth Parliament (INYP)

The Youth Parliament encourages democratic engagement and public discourse by involving students in debates, role plays, and policy discussions. Inventure has extended this learning beyond its own campus through mentorship at government schools. This platform helps students develop leadership, critical thinking, and an understanding of civic responsibility while building confidence to voice opinions on issues that matter.

Inventure Model United Nations (INMUN)

For over a decade, INMUN has brought learners together to discuss international challenges, formulate solutions, and represent diverse perspectives. Participants gain hands-on experience in diplomacy, research, critical thinking, and communication. Inventure students also participate in and win awards at national and global MUN events, reinforcing a real-world understanding of global issues.

Off Campus Experiences

Outbounds and Field Trips

Outbounds push students beyond comfort zones and into real-world problem solving. Through structured adventure and team challenges, learners build resilience, leadership, collaboration, and self-belief. What they learn outdoors shows up back in classrooms and in life.

Field trips at Inventure are designed to connect classroom learning to the real world through direct experience. Students visit local and outstation sites that extend and deepen their understanding of what they study in school, helping them see how concepts from different subjects come alive outside textbooks. Each trip is planned as part of the learning journey, with preparation beforehand and a structured reflection afterwards.

Internships

At Inventure, internships are a core part of the Wider World programme and are compulsory for students in Grades 10 to 12. Every learner completes two internships of two weeks each, gaining direct exposure to real workplaces and professional environments beyond school. Supported by the Wider World team and the school’s parent and alumni networks, students are placed in organisations aligned to their interests, ranging from law firms, media and marketing teams, NGOs and sports academies to research labs and other professional settings. The process of finding an internship itself is an important part of the learning, teaching students how to research opportunities, write applications, follow up professionally, and navigate real-world selection processes.

The experience concludes with reflection and presentation, where students share what they have learned with teachers, peers, parents, and mentors. More than a certificate or recommendation letter, internships give students clarity about their interests, a realistic understanding of the world of work, and a stronger sense of direction for the choices they will make after school.

Guest Lectures

Guest lectures at Inventure are designed to expose students to real people, real journeys, and real work beyond the classroom. Through regular interactions with professionals, creators, leaders, and experts from diverse fields, students gain insight into different career paths, industries, and ways of thinking. These sessions help learners see how knowledge, skills, and values translate into life and work outside school.

Community Connect

Community Outreach at Inventure reflects the school’s values of encouraging sensitivity and providing meaningful exposure to the real world.

A core pillar of this work is Inventure’s long-term partnership with government schools. Students and teachers actively contribute to learning, skill-building, and school development at Government Higher Primary School (GHPS), Ramagondanahalli; Government Tamil Higher Primary School (GTHPS), Shivajinagar; Government Higher Primary School (GHPS), Kodathi; and Government Upgraded Model School (GUMS), Siddahosanahalli.

Choice Projects allow students to pursue deep interests, real-world problems, and creative work through self-directed, mentored projects. They reflect Inventure’s commitment to multiple intelligences, personalised learning, and preparation for life beyond school.

Rooted in Inventure’s belief that different students have different strengths and aspirations, Choice Projects give learners the opportunity to design and drive meaningful work in areas they care about. The programme is built to equip students for a future where technology, entrepreneurship, and social responsibility will shape both opportunities and challenges.

Choice Projects take three main forms: Passion Projects, where students individually explore areas such as research, data science, entrepreneurship, product innovation, public policy, or media and design; Social Impact Projects, where teams work on real social challenges by researching, designing, and prototyping solutions; and Beyond Academics PODs, which are short, intensive, performance- and experience-based creative sprints, including work that feeds into the Annual Production. Throughout the journey, students are mentored by Inventure faculty, and in some cases by external experts, learning to persist through challenges, raise the quality of their work, and take real ownership of both process and outcomes.
