Summer
Reading
Challenge
Thousands of families are involved each
summer in the UK’s biggest reading
event and this year’s challenge Story
Lab will celebrate the spirit of 2012,
with exciting activities encouraging
children to explore the world’s stories.
It’s completely free – and every child
will receive a Story Lab model. Kids
love collecting stickers and they’ll
be keen to complete their Story Lab
challenge and receive a certificate or
medal – just like a real Olympian!

Biome
Elaine Lim-
Newton’s Biome
is a beautiful,
interactive
experience
combining
sculptural and
aural elements
that are based on
the four seasons.
Illuminated organic forms
will beckon participants,
who will then be able to
manipulate the constantly
evolving soundscape
with their position and
body movement. As more
people combine to play
with Biome, the more it
will evolve!
