Everything you need to know

The Lab Rhodes is hosted by City of Canada Bay Libraries and has been running since 2018.

In The Lab Rhodes we focus on social, technical and creative skills, supported by professionals in coding, digital design, gaming, 3D printing and more. Participants have access to a range of maker space equipment, used under careful supervision, like 3D printing, laser cutting, soldering, die cutting and more. Suited for mature participants aged 15+, our program is tailored to encourage social growth in a secure and supportive environment. You can hear from the mentors, and find out more about The Lab Rhodes here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HMyjhNywkjo

All sessions are run at The Learning Space, Rhodes on Thursday afternoons from 3:30pm to 5:30pm for 9-weeks during school terms. Parents are welcomed to stay in the library space where there are workspaces and free WiFi. After their first term, you can elect for your child to come and go from The Lab under their own steam.

Please note for participants aged 10+, we host The Lab Five Dock. We apply this age guide to target the group’s needs and interests.
