🎃 LEGO Discovery Center

Posted 3 years ago by the Penpol Pumpkins

Our morning activity today was focussed around the two Core Values of Teamwork and Fun – and what better place to combine the two than the LEGO Discovery Center in Boston?

Here the Pumpkins explored many different worlds of LEGO, from the Space Land where they built rockets and sent them off into cyberspace to the Builders Workshop where the students got to work with Shaun the Master Model Builder to create their own mini figure-scale scenes.

They even combined forces to turn a giant LEGO mountain build into an orangey “Pumpkin Kingdom”!!
