Mars Colony Architects

Date: April 7-April 10
Time: 1:00 PM-4:00 PM
Ages: 7-13
Limit: 12 Students

Cost: £ 240

Design, build, and expand a living colony on Mars. In this hands-on STEM+ camp, students work together to engineer a shared Martian settlement while crafting their own unique modules that connect to the larger base. Each session challenges learners to solve real problems future explorers may face on Mars—from shelter and energy to food systems and transportation.

 students prototype structures, design functional habitats, and add creative, personal elements to the evolving colony. By the end of the camp, the group will have constructed a collaborative Martian world that blends engineering, imagination, and systems thinking.

• Engage in a hands-on project designed to make a Mars colony ready for the spaceship landing and exploring what it takes to survive on the Red Planet
• Design prototypes of structures, functional habitats, and add creative, personal elements to the evolving colony
• Learn 3D software to bridge the gap between organic and mechanical. Students will use CAD (Computer-Aided Design) to model specialized features for their unique Mars base.
• Fabricate 3D-printed parts for their space ship and Mars colony
• Pair with Robot Zoo for a full day camp experience: Bring snacks, lunch and water bottle!
