We bring the Curriculum to life!

Our workshops are designed to bring the STEAM to life, enabling engaging, hands-on learning

We have a wide range of age appropriate workshops that have been developed to bring the Primary School STEAM curriculum to life.  Our workshops follow the principles of integrated learning, enabling participants to connect real world problems with their educational experiences to solve problems.

Key Habits of Learning

As your students engage in our workshops they will develop key habits of learning vital for their future education and careers.

From problem solving, persistence & perseverance to collaboration, listening and empathising to name but a few.

Computational Thinking

As your students interact with our materials & coding language they will engage in key computational thinking concepts such as decomposition, pattern recognition, abstraction and algorithms. Enabling students the ability to take complex problems and break them down.


Engineering Design Process

Throughout our workshops your students will follow the engineering design process. Defining the problem, brainstorming solutions, developing prototypes and testing and iterating their solutions.

A key framework from problem solving in our daily lives.
