Summer Camps 2025 at the CRAFT Maker Space

The summer camp tickets will be available to book on Friday 20th June at 9.30am!

These camps are hands-on workshops, based on exploration, play and collaborative engineering design projects, placing an emphasis on the concept that we are all makers, deisingers, engineers, scientists, mathematicians, inventors, thinkers, artists and crafters!

This year we have new themes that we hope you will find exciting and fun!

7th & 8th July for 11 to 12 year olds: Stop Motion Animation with Mike Byrne

We're delighted to welcome back Mike Byrne, graduate of LSAD, to learn and develop the skills of design, animation and sound, working with clay and 3d printed artifacts. If you've got an idea already of what animation you'd like to make, bring it along!

10th & 11th July for 7 to 8 year olds: This is Rocket Science

"This is Rocket Science" invites young explorers to launch into learning with exciting rocket-themed activities and space science fun. From building straw rockets to designing Mars rovers, kids will discover that science really can be a blast (boom, boom!).

14th & 15th July for 9 to 10 year olds: Brick & Byte: Digital Creators with Corrib Code Club

At Brick & Byte, young makers become digital creators with the team from Corrib Code Club. Children will explore the world of robotics and coding through fun, doing guided projects using LEGO Spike kits and MakeCode Arcade. Whether they’re building a robot or designing a game, they’ll be learning real tech skills in a hands-on, interactive environment.

17th & 18th July for 5 & 6 year olds: Inventors Lab

Inventors Lab is a hands-on STEM camp where kids turn ideas into real creations. Through building, testing, and problem-solving, young inventors explore how things work—and how to make them better.

21st & 22nd July for 8 to 10 year olds: Solar & Splash Engineers

Young engineers explore the world of STEM through hands-on experiments with water and solar power. From testing Super Soaker distances to building solar-powered boats, kids will investigate how energy moves, flows, and fuels invention! (Water activity is weather dependent! Actually, so is the solar 😁)

Tickets will be available here on Friday 20th June at 9.30.
