Workshops
We are happy to run interactive workshops within a classroom setting covering topics including coding, engineering, design and technology, and creative digital. Our workshops can be for kids as young as reception up to year 6. Workshops usually include a short talk at the start to introduce the topic and then a hands-on activity. Workshops do not need to be for only girls.
