Hands-on fun for curious creators!
Step into the past and discover how people once built shelter using the natural materials around them.
In this creative, kid‑friendly workshop, Tamariki will work with clay, sticks, and imagination to design and build their own miniature huts and houses.
We’ll explore how early communities used local resources, think about what makes a strong structure, and have plenty of messy, tactile fun along the way.
Each child will head home with their own handcrafted model and creations.
Perfect for young makers and anyone who loves getting their hands dirty!
