LEGO® Build the Change: Protect the Ocean
Are you interested in animals that live under the sea?
Passionate about protecting nature?
Curious about the work of a marine biologist?
Do you love building with LEGO® bricks?
Join us at National Museum Cardiff to Build the Change! In this hands-on workshop, pupils will learn more about the diversity of marine life in Wales and beyond, as well as the threats facing it, using museum specimens, real-world case studies and the research of museum scientists. Then they will unleash their imagination, using LEGO bricks to design, build, evaluate and share solutions to some of the biggest issues impacting marine habitats including pollution and climate change.
Earth is now changing fast under the influence of human behaviour and our impacts on the natural world. This workshop is designed to get pupils thinking creatively about the solutions and skills that are needed to tackle the biggest challenges of our time to prepare them for the future.
This activity has been made possible through the partnership between the Natural History Museum and the LEGO Group as part of their Build the Change programme. Build the Change is a sustainability programme which gives children a voice and allows them to express their hopes and ideas for a better future. Build the Change is supported by the LEGO Foundation.
