Join Noughty Wasters and Local Making for a series of 3 workshops where discarded electronics (e-waste) will be transformed into a working remote control robot.
Suitable for ages 8-14, you'll learn basic electronics, creative re-use and upcycling of e-waste, wood, and other materials.
The programme is run by two highly experienced facilitators and limited to only 6 participants who will work together to create one robot collaboratively.
