GLOBE TREKKING FAMILY STEM EVENT

Now being held the 1ST Saturday of the month! 

Come join us for a fun afternoon with your family!  

For April:  Australia's Termite Skyscrapers  

Join us this month for the kickoff of our Globe Trekking Family Events  which will be held the 1st Saturday of the month! Each month we will "visit" a new area of our wonderous world.  Learn about the country, the culture, and maybe even a little language. 

In April, we will be visiting awesome Australia and learning about the amazing Spinifex Termites that build incredibly tall cathedral-like mounds, hence why they are also know as the Cathedral Termites.  Once we check out their engineering feats and gain some inspiration from them, your famliy will be able to engineer your own marvel to awe and inspire. It will be a game of balance, structure, and beauty to behold!

In our unplugged programs, kids experience all aspects of STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math) AND have opportunity to develop their Life Skills in Communication, Collaboration, Critical & Creative Thinking, Flexibility, Sociability, Initiative, Leadership, and Perseverance Through Difficulty.  At Challenge Island, we are dedicated to ensuring a brighter future for our kids and our communities by helping you prepare your child to succeed in the 21st century.
