What’s On

THE next Construction Club takes place on Saturday, December 15 at The Atkinson between 10.30am and 12.30pm.

Young inventors, creators and builders are invited to drop in and play with The Atkinson’s massive supply of Lego.

Founded in Denmark in 1932, the name Lego was created by taking the first two letters of the Danish words “leg godt”, meaning play well.

The iconic building blocks are part of so many people’s childhoods all over the world.

In 1998, Lego was one of the original toys to be inducted into the National Toy Hall of Fame.

Ages five plus. Children under 12 must be accompanied by an adult.

Construction Club takes place once a fortnight.
