Specially developed over 15+ years to inspire all children, ages 5-11yrs, with a lifelong love of science and learning, through enriching, educational experiments, indoor and outdoor social play and take-home activities that explore the science around us in our daily life. Every Day includes: 4* indoor classroom-based fun, hands-on science sessions 3* outdoor ‘Activity Playground Breaks’ – That’s why our camps are referred to as ‘Science Activity Camps’. Science Investigators! Every day on this educational inquisitive 5-day camp, is science expedition into the unknown and over the week your child will do 40+ safe, fun, STEM craft-focused activities, exciting demonstrations, hands-on, take-home experiments, team games and fun quizzes – across Chemistry, Biology and Physics! Day 1: Fabulous Forces! We start the camp off with a fun induction and orientation session to make sure all little scientists settle in well. Then we jump straight into forces fun and investigate different forces. We become fearless fighters of Friction Force to speed up our model cars and then use Magnetic Force to race mini cars around their own designed tracks, then discover the chemical forces behind crazy chemical reactions! Getting to Know You! – Through games and activities we make sure all little scientist are prepared for a fantastic week of science fun! Ready, Steady, Go! – How fast can your magnetic car travel around your race course? Cool Car Friction! – Friction is a powerful force, can you adapt your model car to overcome friction? Fizz, Bang, Boom! – We take part in lots of chemical reactions and finish with an awesome Elephant’s Toothpaste experiment! The Fun Zone! – We re-cap the activities with quizzes and challenges designed to reinforce the day’s learning. Day 2: Living It Up! We become body detectives and discover the hidden world inside when we find out all about our internal organs. Then we measure our heart rates and make our own heart model! We end with everybody’s favourite session – Slime! Brilliant Bodies! – Can you add all the body organs to the model body and then we make our own body model. Super Slime! – Our bodies are filled with lots of gross, gooey stuff – we make our own body slime. Super sticky fun! Heart Beat! – How does your body move blood around? We Look at the structure of our hearts and make a heart model. The Fun Zone! – We re-cap the activities with quizzes and challenges designed to reinforce the day’s learning. Day 3: Super Structures! In a day focused on engineering challenges we compete in teams to construct the tallest towers – Easier said than done! We then design our own strong home to withstand some powerful forces. Then we use our knowledge of momentum to construct marble mazes, but in this race the slowest marble wins! Strong House! – Using the science of strong shapes we build a house to withstand earthquakes and hurricanes! Marble Maze Run! – We see momentum in action as we race marbles in Marble Run Madness! Tallest Tower Investigation! – We compete in teams to build the tallest free-standing tower! The Fun Zone! – We re-cap the activities with quizzes and challenges designed to reinforce the day’s learning. Day 4: Magic Materials! We explore the properties of some materials and find interesting ways to use them. We investigate how to alter or enhance a materials’ properties, then the children think very carefully about how to use some unusual materials to separate a number of different mixtures. Then we investigate the properties of insulating materials to keep our pet penguins warm! Tough Ropes! – What are forces? We investigate how to measure forces then make some rope and test how strong it is with a force meter. Clean Water! – We examine how a water filter works and then create our own to make muddy water clean again. Insulation Inquisition! – How can we stay warm? We investigate the properties of insulating materials. The Fun Zone! – We re-cap the activities with quizzes and challenges designed to reinforce the day’s learning. Day 5: Epic Journeys! Happy Birthday, the Chunnel is 30+ years old! We celebrate and investigate this fantastic feat of engineering. Then we discover how an aeroplane stays in the air and try to keep our own creations airborne for as long as possible. Then we take a much smaller journey deep into the brain to find out how messages travel around the body to the brain. Finally we take an energy journey from potential to kinetic energy via a rubber band! Neuron Networks! – We’ve used a lot of brain power this week – but just how does the brain work? Chunnel Games! – We use some Chunnel Tunnel facts to play a Chunnel Chase board game. Air Journey! – We learn the Four Fantastic Forces of Flight and have some flying fun. Ready, Set, Stretch! – The humble rubber band bounces with brilliant stored energy! The Fun Zone! – We re-cap the activities with quizzes and challenges designed to reinforce the day’s learning. Parents, don’t worry you get something too – you will also receive a ‘TOP SECRET Parent Handout’ that tells you: 1. What they DID? 2. What they LEARNT? 3. Other cool science you can EXPLORE AT HOME? Extended Hours Available 8.30am-4pm (£10 extra per day)
