STEM Summer Workshops
Foxton Canal Museum is the old boiler house that operated the boat lift at Foxton Locks. The lift operated on an incline plane that used gravity to move boats up and down the 75ft incline. The lego challenge will link fun activity with the history of the site and explore some STEM concepts.
When: Wednesday mornings
Time: 09.30 - 10.30 am
Age: 7 - 11 (accompanied with an adult)
