Workshops 

 

 

As you would expect, all our workshops utilise the world's finest educational play materials - LEGO® bricks!  Workshops last about 45 minutes, are run by LEGOLAND Windsor's trained educational facilitators, and are adaptable for use by pupils with special educational needs.

 

Each workshop is accompanied by a FREE Teacher's Resource Pack, full of activity ideas for before, during and after your visit. It suggests topic preparatory work and gives ideas on how to seek out the subject in the Park; also providing a range of optional activities when your group returns to the classroom.
