STEAM Squad provides the opportunity for curious kids to explore science, technology, engineering and maths in hands-on, creative ways.
Tuesday 5th & 12th May - Stop Motion Film Making
Kick off our Technology term with 2 epic weeks of film making! We will be storyboarding our ideas building film sets and creating short films using classic film techniques of claymation and LEGO stop motion.
Tuesday 19th May - Toy Hacking/E-Waste
Kick off our Technology term by exploring what happens to our old devices and toys. Take apart real electronics, uncover the hidden components inside, and give them new life through creative design. Learn how technology and sustainability go hand in hand!
Tuesday 26th May - LEGO Spike Prime Robotics
Get ready to build and code with LEGO SPIKE Prime! Create your own robots and take on exciting challenges as you learn how to program movement, sensors, and more.
Tuesday 2nd June - Sphero Battlebots
This week we’re putting Sphero robots to the test in an epic Battlebot Championship. Design your robot, add custom attachments, and program it to outsmart the competition. Only one robot will be left standing!
Tuesday 9th June - Digital Design / 3D Printing
Explore digital design by creating your own custom 3D bobble head using PrintU (MakerLab), then bring it to life using our new Bambu Lab 3D Printer. Along the way, we’ll learn how 3D printing works and how it’s used in real-world industries, building creativity and problem-solving skills.
Tuesday 16th June - Textiles / Laser Cutting
We will be splitting up into smaller groups this week to explore the world of textiles and melted plastics! Design your own tote bags or pencil cases from recycled fabric and turn melted plastic waste into unique keyrings using heat press and laser cutting.
Tuesday 23rd June - Green Screen Technology
Explore the magic of green screen technology. Snap your own portraits, become a weather presenter, and discover how movies create incredible action scenes. From wild weather to outer space, you’ll learn how digital backgrounds come to life!
Tuesday 30th June - Drones
Take to the skies as we explore the exciting world of flight technology! Pilot a drone through an obstacle course, test your precision and control, and complete fun simulated search-and-rescue challenges - from spotting a shark to locating a missing koala.
STEAM Squad sessions may involve the use of chemicals, hand tools, electronic equipment and machinery (including 3D printers, laser cutters and sewing machines). All participants are expected to behave respectfully, follow staff instructions, and treat equipment and other participants with care at all times.
To help us ensure safety and positive participation for everyone, please advise us at the time of booking of any additional needs or requirements. Due to the nature of some activities, parents or carers may be encouraged to stay and support children who require 1:1 assistance.
