SCIENCE WORKSHOPS

Bring Interactive STEM Learning to Your School or Organisation!

Our tailored science workshops bring STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics) to life for primary school students across London and Surrey. Focused on biology, chemistry, physics, and modern technology (including sound tech), these workshops are packed with a range of diverse, hands-on experiments and interactive learning.

Each session provides a sensory-rich experience, ideal for children in Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2, fostering confidence, joy in learning, and a genuine interest in science. For this reason, we pride ourselves in being the most unique and creative STEM and Science workshop provider in the UK. We are trusted by many parents, schools and local authorities, and continue to constantly improve and expand our reach.

Our workshops are versatile and can enhance schools, community festivals, family fun days, and corporate events alike. They’re ideal for children’s birthday parties, public science events, education expos, and holiday programmes—any setting where interactive, hands-on science can inspire curiosity and excitement.

Whether you’re an event organiser, parent or other family member, school administrator, or community leader, our workshops bring science to life, making them a perfect fit for any occasion aimed at engaging young minds. Our workshops are flexible and well suited to a range of settings, including British STEM Week activities, festival activities, fun day activities, and more! We have a range of activities from controlled explosions and eruptions, to making gooey substances like slime and oobleck.

Our workshops cover a range of exciting topics and activities, including (but not limited to):

  • Slime Making: Explore the science of polymers, viscosity, non-newtonian fluids and create gooey slime.
  • Elephant’s Toothpaste: Witness a range of chemical reactions, with a foaming chemical reaction that’s as fun as it is educational to finish off.
  • Mega Bubbles: Discover the physics behind bubbles and create larger-than-life bubbles. Can we make square bubbles? Whats the largest bubbles we can make?
  • Dry Ice Exploration: Explore sublimation as we experiment with using dry ice to create air pressure, bubbles, mist and more!
  • Sound Technology: This session allows us to ask and answer: What is sound? Using laptops, headphones, microphones, speakers, and Chladni plates, we explore sound properties like echo, reverberation, time, and pitch. This allows us to briefly delve into sound science (acoustics) in a fun, memorable and interactive way. For children who love sensory stimulation, our workshops are perfect, and often a favourite.

With options for 30-minute, 1-hour, or 1.5-hour sessions, schools and organisations can select the level of depth and engagement best suited for their students. Interested in a specific STEM topic? Contact us for a tailored workshop experience!
