Different science topics
They have a variety of shows that cover aspects of physics, chemistry, biology, environmental sciences and engineering. Their shows are truly cross-curricular, designed to support and enhance science learning at all key stages.
Shows for your audience
All their shows are led by enthusiastic, talented and fun science presenters who work with toddlers, schools groups, families and specialist adult audiences. They have the experience to tailor the sessions for the distinct age, interests and abilities of your group.
Travelling throughout the UK
Based in Bristol for the South West, and Stratford for London and the South East, they also regularly visit schools from the Midlands down to the very tip of Cornwall, from Pembrokeshire across to East London, and also ferry and fly their equipment to the islands and across to Europe and beyond!
Established in 1998!
Their signature, effective approach is hands-on and interactive. They have been around for a while and continue to grow, with new shows and innovation each year. Their main approach is also tried and tested, supporting confidence and enjoyment in science for all students, particularly those who don’t feel that science is ‘for them’.
