Schedule

Activities

The following is the schedule for each session. Halfway through building their rockets, the Pioneers get a snack break to recharge and continue. Saturday is an introductory session and if you decide to come again on Sunday, you can follow a more advanced path.

Learn!

We commence the program with an explanation of aerodynamics and propulsion by using simple demonstrations and bottle rockets.

Build!

Every pioneer picks a bottle that they want to launch and transforms them into fully fledged rockets with the assistance of the helpers

Launch!

After fully constructing their rocket and understanding the process of thrust, each pioneer fills up their rocket with fuel and pulls the string to make it soar
