Dive into a unique cultural experience designed especially for children aged 4-9. This hands-on LEGO workshop invites young minds to explore the Noongar season of Makuru, a time of rain and renewal, through storytelling and creative building.
Children will engage with the environment and culture by piecing together their interpretations of Country during Makuru using LEGO bricks. It’s a fun and educational way to connect with Indigenous culture and the natural world.
Perfect for a cold Makuru day, this workshop promises to be a memorable and 'deadly' activity that encourages creativity and cultural appreciation.
The workshop runs for one hour, from 13:30 to 14:30 on Monday, 6th July 2026. It is designed for children aged 4 to 9 years, who must be accompanied by an adult.
Participants will yarn about the significance of Boodja/Country during Makuru before building their own LEGO landscapes inspired by what they learn and feel.
