Little Engineers - Hunsley - Autumn 2026

Every week in the autumn term, we'll take part in fun hands-on engineering challenges, building, testing and improving our creations in teams.

We'll be making towers, bridges, boats, planes and more across the term. Children will also develop their problem solving, creativity and collaboration skills, too.

Not only has research shown that taking part in engineering in school can boost achievement in all subjects, but it can also help children's resilience as they understand that they can learn from their mistakes.

In our clubs, we deliberately use simple, reusable, and recyclable materials - cups, craft sticks, straws - not just because it's better for the planet, but to show children that great engineering ideas can come from everyday objects. Children can also take home everything we use and pick up the engineering again at home with their own resources, rather than us holding on to expensive kits, so the learning doesn't stop when each session ends.
