Creativity 

What to Expect

In these workshops, children get hands-on experience in engineering as they build their own machines ans take on other engineering related challenges. 

 

They get to exercise their creativity and problem solving as they build their own machines and structures, like pulleys, planes and boats.

​

By the end of the workshop, children have a good understanding of some simple engineering and a lot of practice of creativity and problem solving!

Our daughter had a really wonderful time doing something different, being creative and developing problem-solving skills in a fun and engaging way. Will definitely be booking her in again!

What Parents are saying

E. Hardy - parent

My son really enjoyed his day - he came home very excited and talked about everything he’d done, and then spent the rest of the evening making machines!
