The program content is presented at a more advanced level and at a faster pace than is often possible in the regular classroom. Journeys are hosted by several primary schools around Melbourne each term. Schools hosting Journeys provide three spaces for G.A.T.E.WAYS, as well as an area for registration on the first day.

| 'On Location' Canberra
| 'On Location' Canberra ‘Pilots On Probation’ is a G.A.T.E.WAYS program ‘on location’. It is for both boys and girls form Years 5, 6 and 7. It will introduce students to the fascinating world of aviation – including hands-on flying in a plane and a simulator. It is equally beneficial for those with a burning ambition to be a pilot, those interested in the mathematics and science of flight, and those who like to give things a try! The sessions are designed to entertain, involve and challenge the reasoning abilities of gifted students and to inspire them to follow their natural curiosity and innate instinct to learn.
