Our Maker Space Kaupapa is woven from six values:

- Fun

- Learning

- Creativity

- Making

- Sharing

- Respect

The Maker Space room provides students time and an area for children at Pt England to explore and learn through hands-on creativity.

Using modern technologies as well as traditional skills and materials, students use the Maker Space and its resources to design, create and innovate!

Tēnā koutou,

Nō Tāmaki Makaurau ahau. Ko Jackson Vogt tōku ingoa.

Classes from Year 1 to 6 visit the Maker Space throughout the week to learn through hands-on activities and projects related to their inquiry topic.

I also teach extension classes up to year 8, including robotics, clay working, coding, gardening and looking after our eels.

Before entering the Makerspace I taught in the classroom as well as an art educator.

Ngā mihi nui.
