Instead of starting a whole new project from scratch, last night's Lego Club builders decided to keep the builds from the last session and adapt them, which made for some incredible creations... including a house, a motorbike/racing car mashup, and shark with wheels! 🦈

They then gathered all the vehicles they'd made, including the shark, and race them in our children's library. It was a really enjoyable session, and so lovely to see the children playing collaboratively 😊

Our next session is on Monday 21st September. If your child is aged between 5 and 11 and would like to join in, you can book a place on our website: https://tinyurl.com/457wzx9
