We invite children aged 6 to 12 to join us at the Yass Valley Library for a practical, step-by-step introduction to paper plane folding.

This 1.5 hour workshop offers a fun and engaging environment where participants can learn all the techniques and science around the simple paper plane.

What participants will do during the session:

• Learn the core principles of paper folding.

• Prepare their paper plane or multiple.

• Test how their planes fly.

• Come back and redesign or fold based on their test flights.

• Compete their final designs in multiple categories.

• Decorate their competition pieces to make them unique.

By the end of the class, each child will have a completed, and competed their very own paper plane and learned practical points around aerodynamics and physics.

We provide all tools and materials. No prior experience is necessary.
