WHAT'S NEW IN 2022?
- In our first school holidays of the year we'll focus on the range of amazing things engineers and scientists do.
- We'll be using our LEGO kits, motors, range of sensors and electric parts to spend a couple of days living in the shoes of mechatronic, electrical, building and other engineers as well as scientists in a variety of disciplines. We'll also explore how science and arts intersect and get creative along the way.
WHO ARE THE EDUCATORS?
The education team will be led by:
Mr. Pavle Jeric
Mr Jeric has been in education for the last 2 decades teaching students of all ages. He is a computer engineer passionate about developing scientific literacy through fun.
He tells his student that engineers are the world’s problem solvers. “Whether building Roman aqueducts 2000 years ago or modern satellites, engineers have been at the centre of all major developments”.
Schools teach very important subjects like science and maths and Mr. Jeric brings engineering into the mix. For him engineering is a profession, but he believes it is also a general skillset and a way of looking at the world. Engineering brings together sciences, critical thinking, imagination and creativity to solve real world problems.
