“Engineering stimulates the mind. Kids get bored easily. They have got to get out and get their hands dirty: make things, dismantle things, fix things. When the schools can offer that, you’ll have an engineer for life.”

―Bruce Dickinson

We want our children to think like engineers, to find creative solutions to real life problems. Our Tinkering Tuesdays provide exciting experiences for children to become engineers, engaging in the process of designing, building, testing, evaluating and improving. Many of the projects consider our impact on the natural world, finding solutions to ecological problems. It is fundamental that children can communicate their ideas and work in a team. By working alongside professionals, children make connections between their learning and future aspirations, often challenging gender stereotypes.
