Good morning, Northampton! I'm back with the Hellins Partnership for another fun-filled STEM day, this time with John Hellins Primary School. I have lots of creative, hands-on activities in store that promise to engage, excite and inspire. It's going to be a great day! #STEM #Edusky

Our home ed pupils enjoyed collecting colour data with VEX GO. They explored the eye sensor and some of its capabilities. In particular, how it can measure reflected light and "see" colour using the hue scale. #STEM #Edusky

Adam Hill @adamhilledu.bsky.social · 14/01/2026

STEM club pupils at Copley Primary School enjoyed making archways with @strawbees.bsky.social. They experimented with the size of the angles and learnt lots about structures. In particular, the pink group were proud of theirs and used it as a catwalk! #STEM #Edusky

Adam Hill @adamhilledu.bsky.social · 11/01/2026

STEM club pupils at St Malachy’s Catholic Primary School enjoyed this introduction to VEX GO. They worked collaboratively in small groups to build the robot base and then added a robotic arm. They learnt about motors and sensors while driving their robots and having lots of fun! #STEM #Edusky

Adam Hill @adamhilledu.bsky.social · 09/01/2026

STEM club children at Salterhebble Junior and Infant School created identical cubes using @strawbees.bsky.social and then connected them at slight angles to create arches. They learnt about structures and how strong, curved archways can be built from straight elements. #STEM #Edusky

Adam Hill @adamhilledu.bsky.social · 07/01/2026

Really enjoyed spending the day with Hellins Partnership schools and special guests at the Teach for Tomorrow conference. We had a lot of fun during my workshop too! It’s always amazing to see whole organisations prioritising #STEM and planning for it. #Edusky

Looking forward to working with the Hellins Partnership schools at the Teaching for Tomorrow conference. My workshop will include creative, hands-on activities and really important messages. I hope everyone leaves feeling excited to apply the ideas to their own classrooms. #STEM #Edusky

Adam Hill @adamhilledu.bsky.social · 04/01/2026

The STEM Playground is one of our favourite events! The idea is simple - put everything out and let the children play! So often, the most powerful and authentic learning happens when we create the conditions for discovery and then just get out of their way! #STEM #Edusky

Check out my 2025 summary from ChatGPT. Did you review yours? This feature is fun but also very insightful. How was my time spent on the platform? Am I using it well? How much value did it add? I’m pleased with the results - especially being awarded STEMpreneur-in-Chief! #STEM #Edusky

Adam Hill @adamhilledu.bsky.social · 30/12/2025

We love seeing all the great #STEM Christmas gifts in action - where they belong in the hands of creative kids! Henry made this course for his new Sphero robot using his new @nurcstoy.bsky.social - a very happy Launchpad STEM customer! #Edusky

Our home education pupils did a brilliant job of building and coding their VEX GO robot arms! They figured out how to control the movements using the two motors and also how to pick up and drop items using the electromagnet. #STEM #Edusky

En route to beautiful Cumbria to join the Institute of Mechanical Engineers West Cumbria and 280 local children for a fun-filled day of #STEM! Truth be told - I'm trying something new tomorrow. It could be amazing. It could also be utter chaos! Either way, it's going to be lots of fun! #Edusky

Our new STEM club at St Malachy’s Catholic Primary School kicked off with Sphero indi! The pupils first experimented with the coloured tiles to learn what command each colour represents. Then, they used Makedo and Nurcs construction tools to create fun elements. #STEM #Edusky

I absolutely loved my recent trip back to Hong Kong! It was short (made even shorter by flight disruptions) but I’m still so glad I made the trip. I’ll be back very soon - I love this city so much! #Edusky

When Copley Primary pupils made Sierpiński pyramids with @strawbees.bsky.social, someone asked a great question: is it possible to make fractal pyramids using different triangles? They explored isosceles and scalene triangles and continued to apply their understanding of fractals. #STEM #Edusky

When I realised how many Launchpad STEM Camp students shared a love of music, we introduced them to the famous Makey Makey piano and challenged them to go further! They created new instruments and used Scratch to code real sounds for each key. #STEM #Edusky

Chefchaouen in Morocco was the perfect setting for a business retreat! Not only was it a brilliant way to work on Launchpad STEM, but a lovely way to travel too. Thanks to everyone involved for making it so fun, collaborative and inspiring! #Edusky

My first business retreat! I’m heading to Chefchaouen in Morocco to work on the growth and sustainability of Launchpad STEM - working ON my business, not IN it. I’ll be working with the other participants under the expert guidance of Syd Femtinos. It’s going to be amazing! #Edusky
