We’re sorry that we won’t be able to hold our workshops during this time, but we hope you understand that this is an important time for us to focus on our studies. Please keep an eye...

During our September workshop, STEM enthusiasts explored the fascinating mechanics of optics by building their own working movie projectors! How Does a Projector Actually Work? The participants first explored how light travels and how lenses bend and focus light. They discovered that a convex lens can make an image appear much larger—just like the lenses used in real projectors and cameras. Then came the exciting part: building their own! With a little bit of measuring, assembling, and...

Want to know how a simple beam of light can bring movies to life on the big screen? Join us for a fun, hands-on STEM workshop where you'll build and explore your very own mini projector! Learn how lenses bend light and zoom in on images to cast pictures right onto your walls and ceiling, and discover the fascinating optical science that powers the projectors used in cinemas. Spaces are limited. Register now to secure your spot! 🗓 Date: Saturday, 19 September 2026 🕑 Time: 2pm-3:30pm 📍...
