Activity Week Programme

Science Blast!
– New Egg-cellent Activities for 2024

Every day at this 4-day camp is a safe and fun science expedition into the unknown! Over the week your child will do 30+ science activities, exciting demonstrations, hands-on experiments, team games and fun quizzes- across Chemistry, Physics and Biology!
Every Day includes: 4 classroom-based fun, hands-on, science sessions and 3 ‘Activity Playground Breaks’
Please note: the programme content and order may be subject to minor change.

Day 1> Rocket Launch!

After a Getting To Know You and orientation session we become Mini Rocket Scientists! What is propulsion? We’ll see in this day packed with creating your own aerodynamic arrow, hoop glider, and stomp rocket!
Getting To Know You! – Through games and activities we make sure all little scientists are prepared for a fantastic week of science fun!
Rocket 3,2,1! – We make aerodynamic rockets and consider the forces need to launch a rocket into space.
Hoop Gliders! – We all recognise a traditional aeroplane shape – here we look at some unusual flying designs.
Air Rockets! – We discover how we can harness the power of air pressure to launch mini-stomp rockets.

Day 2> Powerful Air!

Having constructed a helicopter blade, children discover the science behind Da Vinci’s Catapult and try to save Eddy the Eggonaut from a sticky end by building safety drop zones!
Choppers! – It’s not just aeroplanes that can fly – we investigate making our own helicopter rotors.
Catapult Comp! – We see some energy transfer in action as we shoot mini-missiles through the air.
Eggonauts! – We discuss states of matter and guess properties of different materials, then we test those predictions and try to save Eddy the Egg from a sticky end!
Powerful Air – the Fun Zone! – We re-cap the activities with quizzes and challenges designed to reinforce the day’s learning.

Day 3> Starry Light!

Play with your perception of light and investigate its funky properties with your very own LED finger torch! Learn all about the fascinating experiments surrounding fire! Become an Astro Physicist, observe cool experiments, and make a light diffracting star and see how a boomerang bounces back!
Light Show! – We investigate the visible spectrum (otherwise known as a rainbow) and see a cool light show.
Flame On! – The fire triangle is the starting point of our investingation into all thing fiery.
Starry, Starry Night! – We look deep into the night sky to discover the secrets of the twinkling stars.
It Won’t Come Back! – What is the difference between a stick and a boomerang – Why does only one come back when you throw it? We look at how shape affects how things fly and make our own returning frisbee.

Day 4> Outer Space!

After watching a mind-blowing science show, we discover the science behind how we see the moon in the night sky and make an astronomy device to see the phases of the moon! We then make some gooey alien slime and compete in a ‘Design your own Mars Rover’ competition!
The Epic Energy Journey Show! – There are so many different types of energy – but the First Law of Thermodynamics tells us that energy can be neither created or destroyed – so instead we see some amazing energy transformations.
Moon Plate! – We all know the moon – but this session will help us gain a better understanding of the moon and how it rotates around the Earth.
Design a Mars Rover! – After the moon we head to Mars! We take a closer look at the planet Mars and consider the environment and terrain before building our own Mars Rover.
Alien Slime! – We create a gooey, sticky Alien slime and learn all about non-Newtonian fluids.

Remember – you as Parents will also receive a TOP SECRET Handout that tells you:

  1. What They DID?
  2. What They LEARNT?
  3. Other cool science you can EXPLORE AT HOME?
