Activity Description

Science Whizz!
– New Safe Activities for 2026
This whizz-tacular 5-day camp is a science expedition into the unknown and over the week your child will do 40+ safe, STEM craft-focused activities, exciting demonstrations, hands-on experiments, team games and fun quizzes – across Chemistry, Biology and Physics!
Every Day includes: 4 indoor classroom-based fun, hands-on science sessions and 3 outdoor ‘Activity Playground Breaks’

Day 1: Science Mix!
Getting to Know You! – Through games and activities we make sure all little scientists are prepared for a fantastic week of science fun!
Rainbow Paper! – We take a closer look at light and create our own shimmering, floating rainbows.
Balancing Robot! – We try some tricky balancing challenges, then test our theories with our own balancing robots.
Balloon Zoom! – As a team challenge, we race balloons using our knowledge of jet propulsion.

Day 2: Science Fun!
Crystal Letters! – We examine crystal structures and start a crystal-growing experiment that you can continue at home.
Static Shock! – We learn the shocking truth about electricity and harness it to make a moving animal model.
Dino Discovery! – From Velociraptors to Tyrannosaurus Rex we unearth our favourite dinosaur details and make a 3D Dinosaur model.
The Fun Zone! – We re-cap the activities with quizzes and challenges designed to reinforce the day’s learning.

Day 3: Science Blast!
Super Slime! – Is it a solid or a liquid? Make your own slime and find out!
Whole Earth! – We take a journey to the centre of the Earth, build an Earth model, then reveal the hidden layers within.
Food Chain Cup Stack! – What’s for dinner? We look at food chains and nets and build a stacking chain of our own.
The Fun Zone! – We re-cap the activities with quizzes and challenges designed to reinforce the day’s learning.

Day 4: Science Slam!
In a Spin! – We take a look at a Victorian toy and discover the link to cartoons and films, then construct an eye-boggling stroboscope.
Hummingbird Spinner! – We trick our eyes again and make a sweet hummingbird spinner to transform a still image into a moving one.
Chromatography Bouquets! – We see chromatography in action and create colourful flowers from just one colour!
The Fun Zone! – We re-cap the activities with quizzes and challenges designed to reinforce the day’s learning.

Day 5: Science Wham!
Rain, Rain Go Away! – We show how all the water on earth is part of a great, big cycle and build a mini water cycle to observe precipitation – that’s rain!
MR FAB! – Animals can be classified into 5 groups – MR FAB has a taxonomy challenge for us to complete!
Flying Fish! – Is it a bird or a fish? No, it’s a plane! We investigate if a plane really needs wings to fly.
The Fun Zone! – We re-cap the activities with quizzes and challenges designed to reinforce the day’s learning.
