Four distinct programs, each built for a different experience level. Every session includes full guidance, all materials, and a welcoming community of fellow makers.

Are you curious about getting your kid into model making and wondering whether it's something they will really get their teeth into (hands onto, actually!) and enjoy? Then this is the place to start. If they are already keen on Lego construction, or making, creating and painting other arts and crafts with their hands, then this is the perfect progression along the conveyer belt of construction.

Have they never built a model before? Perfect! This opening level group takes the fear out of not knowing, and brings inquisitive minds together to explore the joys of creation through model making. Your instructor walks you through every step — from reading and understanding instructions, planning the steps, clipping parts from the sprue, using sanding blocks, preparing painting surfaces, gluing, learning different painting techniques and decal application, to the final finish and presentation. No experience needed, no judgment, just kids eager to learn and take risks with their learning. (sensible risks of course)

Ready to Explore & Experiment

So your kid has made a model or two and has got the basics of construction but buying equipment and supplies is getting costly. Now seeing paints and brushes crammed in the last available space in the house is now becoming tedious, especially when you don't see any building going on. We get it! It's easy to lose motivation and walk away from a project when you face a difficult stage of the build. This is where having a community that meets up weekly to share their passion, can re-ignite the spark needed to endure a challenge. Now they're ready to take it to the next level.

Time to step out of your comfort zone and tackle more complex kits, explore custom modifications, and start building additional parts from scratch. This is where engineering and modelling combine to truly start challenging the mind and your creativity. Your instructor is always available for support and advice should you need it or not.

These family sessions let stress free parents and children work side-by-side, with the added assurance that help and support is always a whisper away. Share a collaborative experience together, and walk away with a model that will give you a great memory every time you look at the finished article.
