Welcome to Flying Minds Education Centre
Where Curiosity Takes Flight
At Flying Minds, we believe every child is born with natural curiosity, creativity, and potential. Our mission is to nurture that potential through hands-on learning experiences, inspiring teachers, and programs designed to build confidence, problem-solving skills, and a lifelong love of learning.
We are a Calgary-based educational hub offering premium academic and enrichment programs for children ages 5–17, including tutoring, STEM clubs, robotics, art, chess, camps, and our High School Learning Hub.
Our philosophy is simple:
When children explore, create, and discover—great things happen.
