St Hilary’s School – LEGO® Innovation Studio

Overview

St Hilary’s School in Godalming, Surrey which was recognised as “Prep School of the Year 2020” by the Independent Schools of the Year Awards, has always been committed to providing forward-thinking, inspirational learning environments.

The Challenge

The school aimed to create a flexible, creative learning space that could support cross-curricular activities, promote problem-solving and design thinking, and above all, spark imagination through hands-on learning. The room needed to cater to group collaboration, individual work, and the safe storage of specialist LEGO robotics kits and digital devices.

The Solution

Zioxi worked closely with the leadership and teaching team at St Hilary’s to design a dynamic environment tailored to the school’s needs. The studio features:

• Flexible, collaborative furniture that can be easily reconfigured to suit different lesson formats.
• Integrated charging solutions with smart power management to support digital devices and programmable LEGO robotics kits.
• Custom storage solutions for organising and securing LEGO sets, tablets, and resources.
• Durable, modern finishes that reflect the school’s identity and energise young learners.

By understanding the school’s vision and the practical needs of staff and students, Zioxi delivered a solution that balances innovation with functionality.

The Impact

The LEGO Innovation Studio has become a hub of excitement and engagement at St Hilary’s. It supports learning across STEM subjects and beyond, encouraging students from early years to Year 6 to explore coding, engineering, storytelling, and teamwork.

Teachers report increased pupil enthusiasm and deeper engagement during hands-on sessions. The space is now a central feature of the school’s learning strategy, helping deliver a curriculum that is as imaginative as it is impactful.
