Park Science - Marvellous Machines
Monday 15 January from 8am to 4pm Friday 19 January from 8am to 4pm Monday 22 January from 8am to 4pm
Inspire your inner engineer on our zany Marvellous Machines day in the park!
Design and build a Rube Goldberg machine; a comically involved invention that is designed to perform a simple task in a hilariously complicated way OR in our current climate of heat and water conservation, design and build a water rally. Working in teams, your task will be to design and build your own wild invention to solve an everyday problem.
This engaging STEAM challenge presents an opportunity for participants to learn the engineering design process and build their own Marvellous Machine. Participants learn how to work in a team, brainstorm, plan, design a blueprint and ultimately - build a machine!
