Holiday workshops: STIXX Shelters (Year 5 and 6)
About this Event
Get ready for an epic construction adventure! In teams of six, participants will transform humble sheets of newspaper into solid, structural STIXX rods using a special hand-operated STIXX machine. With only these rods and reusable cable ties, they'll design and build life-sized giant 3D shelters big enough to fit the whole team of six into!
Just like Civil Engineers on a real-world construction site, they’ll take part in every phase – planning, building, testing, using and eventually dismantling their shelter. For those who achieve the initial challenge early, there’s room for additional creativity producing custom features like windows or flag poles.
It’s teamwork, imagination and engineering rolled into one unforgettable experience!
For children who have just completed Years 5 and 6 this term - please book based on your child’s current/most recent school year, not their new year group from September. This typically corresponds to children aged around 9–11 years old. We reserve the right to refund or deny entry to those who are not in the correct year group.
Refunds can only be issued for tickets cancelled at least two weeks (14 calendar days) in advance of the event date. Please note that this supersedes our normal event terms and conditions.
