London Muslim Centre, 46 Whitechapel Road, E1 1JX. The theme is space. Seven stations across one room, drop-in all day, with a staffed tool area.
Delivery, setup, the run of the day, pack-down and Tuesday's collection.
Open →One row per activity. Owners named; the hazards and controls are not written yet.
Open →What a volunteer does on the day, and what they are never asked to do.
Open →Fourteen examples of nature solving an engineering problem, with 33 print-ready photographs, 31 of them in the pack.
Open →A station is a place with a table, a facilitator and a volunteer. An activity is a thing a child does. One station may run several, and each activity keeps its own card, folder and materials list.
Flat paper folded, cut and curled into 3D buildings, using shapes nature already uses.
A little lens stuck to a visitor's own phone with Blu Tack. Nothing to charge, nothing to count back in.
Five makes tested in the airflow: helicopter, hovercraft, ring, jellyfish, parachute. The fly half on the board.
Vehicles built out of junk, and run. The roll half. Two chassis and three drives, one of which does not yet work. Its stock comes from the materials area.
Two builds: a straw air rocket fired off a paper straw, and a balloon on a folded paper fin. The only activity at the fair that throws something.
The English Martyrs LEGO Ramps activity: LEGO buggies on cardboard ramps, exploring slope, speed and distance.
Muireann's station, replacing Stop Motion Animation. Hers to prepare; the record waits for her activity document.
The shared stock every making station draws from. Junk collected from iOi and from ELM. Not an activity.
Not a children's activity. Mains power, and a facilitator on it whenever it is open. Volunteers use the tools once they have been inducted on them.
The eight pointed star of Islamic art, drawn by hand. On hold from 18 August, not being taken further.
Jen is on Support, not on a station. She is the only name at this event not tied to one, which is the first answer the cover problem has had. Facilitators are as the Monday export of 18 August has them.
Both possible activities came off on 18 August. Drawing Stars is on hold. 360 Space Videos is dropped, and its record is in the archive.
| Do we have storage space where we can leave our things on Friday and pick them up on Tuesday? |
| What happens at prayer time? Is that a good time for our team to have a break? |
| Where can our van unload? |
| Please send a fire exit plan of the building, with our rooms marked and, ideally, the sockets and the number of tables available to us. |
