Workshop Summary
We have limited availability for summer 2022 due to booking cancellations. We still have some spaces available for our Scienceworks event in June if this is of interest.
Tyne and Wear has a large transport system including a bus network, Metro and an international airport. In this session, students will learn about how transport has changed over time by exploring the galleries of the Discovery Museum. The Children will investigate materials and have the opportunity to do an observational drawing in the gallery. The class will then have the opportunity to consider which materials would be the most suitable for making an air-powered vehicle in a group-making challenge.
* some of the content between Rocket Car Racers, Stephenson's Rocket and Transport are similar. We don't recommend that groups book both of these sessions.
