Idle Hour’s Makerspace Fair

This year, 111 students from grades K-5 brought their creative ideas to life as part of Idle Hour’s Makerspace Fair.  The Makerspace Fair is an event where students have the opportunity to design, create and showcase hands-on projects that highlight creativity, innovation and problem-solving. Rooted in the “maker” mindset, the fair encourages students to learn by doing, incorporating elements of science, technology, engineering, art and math (STEAM). 

Be on the lookout for the upcoming “Around Our Schools” e-newsletter to see more Makerspace magic!
