Holiday workshops: Smart Trains and Smart Tracks (Year 7 - 9)

Design and build infrastructure for your own trainline Coventry is becoming one of the first cities in the world to roll out a Very Light Rail system. The engineering researchers working on this project from University of Warwick, are bringing their real-world expertise into the workshop to challenge participants to think like a transport engineer. Participants will be getting hands-on with Intelino smart train kits, taking on a series of exciting engineering challenges. Programme the vehicles, design the track layouts, and build the infrastructure needed to solve problems inspired by real scenarios. Working in groups, you'll combine creative thinking, coding, and engineering design to bring your ideas to life — collaborating just like a real team of transport engineers would. For children who are in Years 7, 8 and 9 this term. This typically corresponds to children aged around 11–14 years old. We reserve the right to refund or deny entry to those who are not in the correct year group. Refunds can only be issued for tickets cancelled at least two weeks (14 calendar days) in advance of the event date. Please note that this supersedes our normal event terms and conditions.
