Welcome to the Year of the Dog! As the moon rises on a new Chinese lunar year, we welcome makers to a session of traditional Chinese crafts. Kids can have a go at fortune-telling by programming a Micro:bit and making a paper fortune cookie, and try papercraft to make and launch confetti canons and light-up paper lanterns to take home. Makers who have been before are welcome to bring along a project of their own to work on.

All sessions are unaccompanied, please ensure you have filled out a Parental Permission Form available here or at the club.

Science Oxford welcomes all children to our clubs. If your child has additional needs, please get in touch on [email protected] to discuss how we can best support your child to make the most of the club.
