Slime and Snow

In our most popular workshop, your children will each undertake 2 experiments! Students makes their own tub of slime through a wonderfully weird chemical reaction followed by piles of fluffy Instant Snow.

CO2 Rockets

Your kids will each build a small rocket made from plastic and foam, decorate it, and then head outside to shoot their rockets around. Focused kids can get these to fly seriously high and can use their understanding of forces to modify their rockets’ flight patterns. (Best for older crowds 7yrs+)

Polymer Worms, Balls and All

In this workshop your kids will mix chemicals to produce a range of plastic creations. These unusual polymers can be manipulated to create long stringy worms, weird rubber balls and any other shapes limited only by your students’ imaginations.

Neon Coloured Super Bouncy Balls

Ever wanted to experience the way materials change whilst designing and then creating your very own ‘Super Bouncy Balls’? This workshop has your students making beautifully bright bouncy balls whilst learning about the properties of polymers.
