• The Fleot, Fleet House, 10 New Bridge Street
From 6-16 August, Fleet Street Quarter, in partnership with social enterprise Class of Your Own, will host a summer school for children and young people aged 11-16 at The Fleot. This fun learning programme aims to inspire young minds to build a greener world through real-life experience.
Located in Fleet House at 10 New Bridge Street, The Fleot is a pioneering green and digital construction skills hub delivered by Community Coworking and a consortium of partner organisations.This unique summer experience is an exciting opportunity for children to learn about Built Environment careers and help the environment while gaining valuable skills. It’s never been more important when the construction industry contributes to about a third of the world’s overall waste and at least 40% of global carbon dioxide emissions.
Children will learn how to design, engineer and construct extraordinary net-zero buildings, ranging from homes to hospitality to healthcare. There’s even a ‘Centre for Our Planet’ (The COP), to teach young people about climate change. Participants will sketch, build, gain insights from professionals in the field and receive a certificate on completion.
For £25 per day, with a minimum commitment of four days, the school is the perfect opportunity for aspiring architecture, engineering and construction professionals. There are only 20 spaces available each week on a first-come, first-served basis. Join us in building a better society and let’s educate the future of construction, one innovative building at a time. To book, contact support@classofyourown.com or call 07931425279.
