Our STEM workshops below are suitable for mixed ages:

    - Science (Physics)

  • In this interactive workshop, put your scratch coding skills to the test by trying to complete a research mission on Mars. Once you have successfully programmed their Mars rover to collect rock samples, you will work scientifically to investigate which Martian material will be best for building homes on the planet.

    - Computing (Coding), Maths and Science (Space, Chemical Reactions)

  • Look to the future of aerospace engineering by developing a prototype of a new Mars rover. Work as a team to design, build and test a Mars rover. Compete with your classmates to meet the criteria of a design brief and produce the best prototype for the mission.
