Dive into an exciting STEM adventure designed for children aged 8 to 12. This session focuses on the fascinating behaviour of air as it moves around curved surfaces, sparking curiosity and scientific thinking.
Kids will get hands-on experience constructing their very own "remark-a-ball" Airball Basketball game to take home, blending creativity with science.
This is a perfect opportunity for young minds to engage in discovery and practical learning in a supportive and fun environment.
