Challenge Island STEAM Classes

Challenge Island is an award-winning STEAM enrichment program where smart and curious kids work together in “STEAM Teams” to solve fun, hands-on “challenges” which teach them about STEAM fundamentals and cross curricular topics, plus important success skills like creativity, critical thinking, problem solving and much more. Each of our classes focus on a positive atmosphere packed with activities and learning, with the goal of encouraging children to be more confident and excited about their skills in STEAM and working together.

Antarctic Penguin Sled Challenge

Learn about Antarctica and its cutest inhabitants, then put your STEAM skills to work to create penguin sleds which take advantage of momentum and friction to move your sleds as fast and far as possible down our sled runs! This drop-in workshop will also be an opportunity to learn more about Challenge Island, who will be offering hands-on STEAM summer camps at SLPR the week of June 29.

We hope to see you there!
