Strong bridges – Can you build a bridge that supports 1, 2 or 3 kilos in weight? Test out your idea and see how much load it can take before it collapses.

Rocket cars – Build an air powered rocket car using K’Nex. Test it and make modifications to improve its performance. Race it on our track to see how far it will travel in a straight line.

You can book for the morning, afternoon or both sessions.
