We had a great time turning the #Fibonacci Sequence into art on Saturday. We made circles with a radius that matched the sequence and put them together to make beautiful pictures. #mathsart #makerspace #STEAM
After making a chassis with a @TenkaLabs circuit cube motor, families got creative and designed and accessorised their own vehicles! It was lovely to see how proud everyone was of what they had made ❤️ #makerspace #learningthroughplay @LEGOIdeaStudio

We may survey the adults, but of equal importance to us is the feedback we get from the kids, whether it's a comment or a drawing it's all taken on board and shapes what we do ❤️ #Epic #GrateFun #Awsome
