Generate green electricity from your own movement, then race mini-robotic creatures using your own power!

Discover the wonders of electricity first-hand in this stimulating interactive workshop. Your pupils will explore the workings of circuits and components by using their own movement to generate green electricity and find out how it is stored. After that it’s time to charge up our mini-robotic creatures for a race around the track!
