Holiday workshops: To the Fourth Dimension and Beyond (Year 7 - 9)
About this Event
Get ready to explore the mathematics of shapes with Zoe Griffiths, from the 2D world we know and love, through 3D space, and into the fascinating realm of 4D and beyond.
Participants will tackle puzzles, test ideas, and develop new ways of thinking about space and structure. They’ll take on hands-on paper-folding challenges, and experiment with geometry and problem solving in two dimensions. From there, they’ll be introduced to the curious world of topology, creating Möbius loops and investigating classic problems like the utilities puzzle.
To finish, participants will investigate some of Zoe’s favourite 4D shapes and touch on some tricky and unusual topics.
For children who have just completed Years 7, 8 and 9 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 11–14 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.
