Introducing LEGO League: Explore the World of Archaeology!

29th Jan 2026

We are excited to introduce our students to LEGO® League this term, with a special focus on the theme “Explore.” Through this hands-on STEM program, students will step into the role of archaeologists, discovering how the past helps us understand the world today.

As part of the Explore theme, students will learn about the work of an archaeologist—asking questions, investigating artifacts, and uncovering clues from history. Using LEGO materials, they will design and build models that represent archaeological sites, tools, and discoveries, while developing creativity, teamwork, and problem-solving skills.

Throughout the program, students will:

  • Explore what archaeologists do and why their work is important

  • Learn how discoveries from the past shape our understanding of cultures and communities

  • Build and share LEGO models inspired by archaeological findings

  • Develop collaboration, communication, and STEM skills

LEGO League encourages curiosity, imagination, and learning through play. We are excited to see our students explore history, think like scientists, and bring their ideas to life through LEGO building and teamwork.

Stay tuned for updates as our young explorers begin their archaeological journey!
