Sessions 1 & 2 - Cardboard creation
​
The first two sessions this year will be all about exploring creativity and engineering. Do you love making things that look cool? Do you love making things that are beautiful? Do you love making things that are fun? If so, then join us to explore the world of making with cardboard construction tools!
We have sets of MakeDo cardboard construction tools and will be building everything from shields to Mars bases! Let your imagination run wild!
​
We will provide cardboard, but if you want to bring along any old cereal boxes or if you have some old packing boxes in your shed, please bring them!
