About

Use Lego and plastic components to build a model, then programme it using an iPad. Using Scratch block coding, you’ll be able to make your model move, make noise, light up, play music, and more! You’ll learn coding, digital literacy, problem solving, and critical thinking – all through play!

  • Suitable for ages 5 – 12, no experience necessary
  • Children must be accompanied by an adult
  • No admittance to under 5s – this includes accompanying siblings

Please note, it is not possible to take your model home as the parts will be used for other workshops.
