About Brickulum

For years I’ve been working on building a solid Digital Technology and STEM/STEAM program. I’ve looked for ways to not only achieve curriculum objectives, but for exciting ways to get students – and teachers – engaged in the activities to ensure the learning continues beyond the classroom. I’ve worked with many different systems and have found that the one product that can deliver on all fronts is LEGO^®. From exploring the principles of motion to engineering structures right through to building and coding complex robots, LEGO^® has a solution for it all. But it’s not enough to just have the products – it’s how you use them in the classroom that can really make the difference.

Brickulum Services

It's not all about LEGO^® - I also offer a range of services in Digital Technology, Design and STEM. I'm also passionate about supporting and upskilling your existing staff to confidently run great programs.

Client Testimonials

“Our school from prep to 6 absolutely loved working with Ryan. For the students to see creative possibilities out of Lego and Technic it opened up a world of possibilities to them. Many of our grade 6 students who graduated last year spoke about the incursion as one of the highlights of their school journey. I would thoroughly recommend Ryan and Brickulum to any school looking to engage their students in the STEM curriculum.”

Dale Banks, Principal

“I want to express my gratitude for your support and commitment to our Lego League event. Your commentary and passion throughout the day was instrumental in the success of the event. We received great feedback in relation to the atmosphere and your involvement played a crucial role in bringing everything together.”

“Thank you so much for a fantastic day – so many very happy students and the teachers were thrilled with the learning opportunities that students had throughout the day and into the evening. Lots of happy parents too! You were brilliant and the teachers spoke so highly of you. Thank you for your flexibility and willingness to cram so much into a single day. Thanks again for providing such a wonderful opportunity for our students.”

The Brickulum will inspire your students

In 2023, Brickulum visited over 30 primary and secondary schools in the government and private sectors as well as the home education network. I’ve partnered with KIOSC – Swinburne University, GATEWAYS, Maths Play and consulted for LEGO Education. From running PD to being a keynote at MACS STEM MAD state and national conferences all the way to MCing FIRST LEGO League tournaments, it’s fair to say it was a huge year. Best of all, I’ve had the pleasure of working with an huge number of amazing students.

The feedback has been extraordinary. Students have been engaged from the minute we start right through to the final bell. Teachers have joined in with lessons that are fun, have clear learning intentions and outcomes and have been inspired to use LEGO in their own classrooms. Education support staff have commented on how activities not only allow for the diverse range of learners in the room, but even give some of our funded students an opportunity to shine. Principals have advertised their association with Brickulum as a drawcard at information nights and school tours.

2024 has eclipsed this already with almost every school rebooking, many asking for extra dates with several requesting whole weeks. With several new schools coming on board too, dates have quickly filled. Be sure to book your Term 1 2025 dates now!

GRAND MASTERS SEMI-FINALIST!
