In the summer of 2021, we ran a three day summer camp at Dynamic Earth where we explored engineering through creativity, play, and outdoor learning. We worked with our great volunteers, Amy, Graeme, Cameron and Rosie and the learning team at Dynamic Earth to run this youth camp.
We looked at lots of different types of engineering through making rafts, planes, and trebuchets! We also used teamwork activities to make towers and bridges, and tested teamwork when playing games such as adults vs. kids football!
On the final day, parents were invited to take part in the final buildings of the items before competitions were held to see which plane flew the furthest and which raft was the best designed!
