Activities
We run two free to attend sessions for young people. You can book onto them via our events page.
Weekly on Wednesdays, from 4.30-5.30, we run our Mini Makers group, for ages 8-12. The whole group follows a set activity, which rotates every 2/3 weeks.
Weekly on Tuesdays, from 4.30-6, we run our Teens group, for ages 11+. Bring your own project, or be inspired by our kit including 3D printers, Arduino boards or Lego robots. Our team will be on hand to help!
Some of the activities include:
- Designing a 3D model and using a 3D printer
- Setting up a Raspberry Pi computer and coding with it – including using cameras and electronics!
- Programming electronics with Arduino boards
- Taking and editing photos
- Using drag and drop programming with Scratch, LEGO robots, BBC micro:bits and PyBadges
We have also in the past taken these sessions out on the road to community centres, schools, and libraries.
We pride ourselves on keeping all of our activities free to attend so everyone is able to take part.
You can read more about our sessions on our 2022 recap blog post.
