Everything you need to know

Build social skills & team skills – while building with Lego.

How It Works
At each time slot, we will have about 3-4 students working together, with a couple of our leaders helping and guiding team-work negotiations. Each week we have a different project that we work on together as a team (e.g. create a beach scene or a playground or a factory etc).We do fun games like, “Who can build the tallest tower” or “Make the weirdest shape with only straight pieces” etc.

Here’s How We Play
We express our own opinions using kind words.
We listen when others have a different opinion.
We will always listen to our leaders who are here to help us.
We will try to not get cranky at people even if they have different ideas to us.
We compromise – Sometimes other people want us to build things differently to how we want to build things, and we will be okay with changing our minds.
If our leader tells us to go and get a drink of water, we will do that straight away because that is our chance to calm down.
We keep our camera on (in Zoom) so our leaders/teammates can see our faces to know if we are feeling okay.
We always use calm, kind and polite words and we have friendly faces.
