Build a cubby, a mini-house... or a rocket! Become a master builder with giant magnetic tiles! Snap together huge, colourful panels to construct towering rockets, sprawling houses, mighty castles, and incredible structures you’ve invented yourself. These satisfying, oversized shapes click into place like magic, making it easy to build... reshape... destroy... and build again. Work solo, or collaborate with friends to bring your biggest, boldest blueprints to life! Drop-in sessions available from 10 am to 3 pm (Weds-Sat) during school holiday. Suitable for participants 5 -11 yrs old. FREE. No bookings required. Just show up!

Make a moving head puppet with giant eyes. Transform a CNC-cut flat sheet of plywood and a couple of ping-pong balls into a lively puppet character that can talk! Through simple assembly, we will explore basic engineering ideas like leverage and movement. Then it’s time to decorate using colourful masking tape and imagination. Each character has calm and not-so-calm modes, helping kids discover how mechanics can express emotion. The session finishes with playful puppetry games that introduce character, storytelling, and creative performance.​​​​​​​​​​​​​
