Vacation care fun where the children get to take home their own catapults!

Get Medieval!

One of our science presenters will go through the difference between a catapult and a trebuchet as well as the use of triangles to handle the tension imposed on the catapult. Children then work with hot glue guns to construct their catapult with the help your staff and our presenter. Children finished early have the option of making a target or paper castle to aim at with the catapult.

All safety equipment is supplied. It is recommended that this work be run for children 7 years and older due to the use of hot glue guns. If parents wish to join in they are more than welcome.

Requirements

- Appropriate for children aged 7 years and up, maximum 30 students

- For safety we will require the help from your staff members.

- 5 large tables arranged around the edge of the room

- Chairs not required

- Duration 90 minutes

- Set up time 30 minutes and pack up time 30 minutes

Cost

- $275 inc. GST.
