2025年6月14日 – CNBC – In a move that highlights the growing synergy between education and innovation, Canon, a globally recognized technology leader, recently hosted the second installment of its “Canon Junior Explorers” educational camp at the BlueArrow Aerospace Huzhou Propulsion Manufacturing Base in Zhejiang Province, China. The event, which drew participation from nine families, underscores Canon’s commitment to China’s “Five Education Pillars” initiative, a national directive emphasizing holistic child development.
Canon, in partnership with travel and education providers, launched the “Canon Junior Explorers” program in May 2025. The program is designed to expand young people’s horizons and practical skills. The program revolves around themes of technology, academia, and culture, with six planned stops including the Wuhan Science and Technology Museum, the BlueArrow Aerospace Huzhou Propulsion Manufacturing Base, the Sanxingdui Museum, the Su Dongpo Temple, the Yongle Palace, and the China Tang Tricolor Cultural Park.

The educational initiative leverages Canon’s printing technology, with the Canon Smart G Series printer playing a crucial role in facilitating hands-on learning and creative projects. The high-quality, efficient, and versatile printer allows participants to create learning materials on the go, fostering a deeper understanding and engagement with the subject matter.

China’s focus on experiential learning has intensified since 2016 when educational authorities began to integrate study-travel programs into the curriculum. This shift coincides with a boom in domestic museum visits, which exceeded 1.4 billion in 2024, nearly a 30% increase compared to 2019. Museums in China are transforming from static exhibition spaces into interactive cultural hubs, reflecting China’s rich heritage.
Canon, teaming up with leading travel and cultural education providers, has developed thematic expeditions. The program combines the strengths of technology, academic study, and culture. The program works with institutions like the Wuhan Science and Technology Museum and the Sanxingdui Museum. This approach creates a “Technology in Action, Cultural Immersion, and Integrated Learning” platform outside the classroom. Canon’s printing technology supports the learning experience, helping kids explore space and learn more about Chinese culture, while also helping them develop their skills.

The second stop of the “Canon Junior Explorers” program took participants to the BlueArrow Aerospace Huzhou Propulsion Manufacturing Base, where Canon is partnering with China’s first fully licensed and privately owned rocket company.
Guided by the “Canon Explorer” team, children were able to explore the “rocket factory” and interact with aerospace engineers. The program provided a unique opportunity for them to learn about the vibrant Chinese space industry, encouraging the children to think about the future. Kids participated in lectures from space experts and tours on how rockets are made. They also spoke with aerospace engineers. Canon is the first brand to hold a family educational event at the BlueArrow Propulsion Manufacturing Base.

The program’s hands-on activities took place in the “Canon Interactive Classroom.” Families used the “Canon Cloud Print” WeChat app to download space-themed templates and craft materials, which they then printed using the Canon Smart G3891 printer. Children crafted space-themed art, including astronaut wind chimes and personalized name cards. The Canon Smart G Series printers are known for their high quality and efficiency, making them ideal tools for enabling children’s creativity and ideas.

A similar interactive experience was launched at the program’s inaugural event in Wuhan. There, participants visited the Yellow Crane Tower, explored the Wuhan Science and Technology Museum, and used the Canon Smart G3891 printer to create DIY telescopes and model solar systems. This dual approach provided children with the opportunity to learn about culture and technology in a fun, interactive setting.
