School holidays: 3D Print club - Print a planet 9-12yrs
Monday 29 September from 10:30am to 1:30pm
In this playful session, kids imagine and build a tiny world using an easy, child-friendly 3D program (no prior experience needed).
Starting from a simple sphere, they’ll:
Shape craters, mountains and oceans with simple tools
Add fun details like rings, trees, domes or tiny buildings made from basic shapes
Choose colours and surface textures to give their planet personality
When the design is ready, we’ll prepare it for 3D printing and run it on our Bambu X1 printers. Along the way, kids get a gentle intro to how 3D printing works and how to create safely in a makerspace.
What you’ll take home:
A 3D printed design, limited to a print time of 3 hours
Your 3D prints will be produced after the workshop finishes. We’ll email you when they’re ready to collect. You can pick them up within 14 days of your workshop date from the Level 1 Customer Service Desk.
