Geelong Tech School on Latrobe Terrace is a free STEM technology hub (run with The Gordon) that delivers hands-on programs to students from its network of partner secondary schools, with most activities aimed at Years 7-12. Young people get access to state-of-the-art kit and projects like 3D printing and CAD, game design in Unreal Engine, app prototyping, podcasting, laser cutting, robotics and animation, plus career-focused immersions and Maker Faires. Special initiatives include Girls Leading Advanced Manufacturing (GLAM) and Girls in Physics events. Note that programs run through schools rather than as casual public classes, so access is usually via your child's school.

Education for Kids in Geelong, VIC
Beyond school, Geelong has a rich network of free and low-cost learning programs for kids — led by the Geelong Regional Libraries, which run storytime, school-holiday activities and STEM workshops across every suburb, plus the Geelong Tech School and community learning spaces. These are some of the best-value enrichment options for local families.
Libraries are far more than books: regular storytime and rhyme-time sessions for babies and toddlers, holiday programs, coding and maker workshops, and quiet study spaces for older kids — almost all of it free with a library card. For school-age children, tech and STEM programs build digital and problem-solving skills. Check each venue's program calendar, as sessions and age groups vary by branch and by school term.
