About the program
The school holiday program is designed for primary school-aged students to participate with their relatives and friends. Each hands-on activity has been planned in accordance with the K–6 NSW syllabus outcomes so that there is a clear link between the school holiday program and Sydney Metro's Fast-tracking the Future education program.
Sydney Metro's free school holiday program
Sydney Metro's free school holiday program will be back in July 2025. Come join us for fun hands-on STEM activities for children aged 8 to 12 only. Places are limited and bookings are essential. Parents/carers must be in attendance and responsible for their children at all times. Booking details will be published on this page in June 2025.
Fun with robots workshop
Students work in small groups to explore a series of challenges related to Sydney Metro. Sydney Metro is Australia’s most technologically advanced railway, and is Australia’s only fully-accessible, driverless train service.
This fun workshop for students aged 8 to 12, allows beginners to get a taste of programming by using an educational robot called Dash and an easy drag-and-drop visual coding tool called Blockly.
School holiday activities
Can’t wait until the school holidays? Sydney Metro’s free school holiday activities are now available for you to download.
Our STEM activities allow students to direct their own school holiday program at home. For each activity, there is a step-by-step guide and templates for primary-aged students to try a new skill and learn more about Sydney Metro. We recommend at least two or three hours for each activity.
