Discover. Research. Create.
Experience science, rather than simply learning about it. The Foundation offers opportunities for curious minds of all ages.
What Can You Do Here?
From robotics and radio astronomy to space communications: the activities are now organised into four thematic areas.
LEGO Club & FIRST LEGO League
An existing club has received premises and infrastructure support from the Foundation since 2025. Two teams are currently working in the Challenge category.
