+ We send you the kit, so you don’t have to gather the materials, we’ve done that for you!

+ Clubs are eligible towards the Childrens University passports.

+ Youngsters can work towards the British Science Association’s CREST Award (£5 to register, need to complete 8 of your own experiments inspired by the ones in the clubs, email us on [email protected] for more info)

+ Tutorials are pre-recorded for you to watch when it suits you, providing you with step by step guides to carry out the experiment plus the science theory behind the activity.

+ When you’re ready for a science lesson, just grab the kit and follow along!

Testimonials

  • Sarah, Online Clubs
    Your lessons have been incredible this year, I went from a child leaving school hating science and not wanting anything to do with it, to a child that really enjoys getting stuck in and experimenting and exploring. Thank you for giving him enjoyment from science and lots of laughs and smiles.

  • Franny, Mid Devon
    Thank you, Ruth, for your seriously inspiring online science sessions. My two kids spent many days afterwards re-creating the experiments in different ways - thanks to the excellent equipment kits you sent in the post. It's brilliant how you teach them the scientific principles behind the fun stuff, they love going on to apply those principles in other situations. They have learned so much and we will definitely be back for more.

  • Angela, Plymouth
    Each session had three really fun and engaging activities, well taught and explained. None of the activities were “duds” or time fillers and my daughter was inspired to follow up each session with further investigation. The sessions were well priced and we are sad they have come to an end

  • Joanna, Online Clubs
    Many thanks for your amazing lessons! They are so good at inspiring young scientists and introducing scientific concepts in a fun way.
    Joanna, Online Clubs
  • Beth, Online
    Absolutely fantastic online classes. My 5yo looks forward to them every week and it has really fed his love of science and provided lots more avenues for him to explore in his own time. The kits are always well organised and the little added treats make it that bit more special and exciting for young children to receive.
