Learning Bus Hits The Road!

Thanks to the support of the Watson Family & Reece Foundation, our Learning Bus has completed a summer tour of the North East.

The Learning Bus reached 8 different community hubs and supported 276 children and young people over the course of the summer.

Children, young people and their families were encouraged to complete a huge range of activities on the bus; from learning about the physics of sound to make a musical instrument, to seeing what they could create to protect an egg from the scary 4m fall from our double-decker back window!

The Learning Bus added extra buzz to community street parties and summer schools.

The young people enjoyed being in a new and unique environment where they were encouraged to think outside the box.

However, the bus wasn’t just for the young people as parents were also encouraged to get involved with the activities their children were up to and work together on the challenges that our STEM team had set up.

Our team had a wonderful time on the road meeting new and familiar faces and look forward to being out and about in the future!
