There's More to Explore... |
Attracting over 40 000 school visitors each year, Explore-At-Bristol is one of the UK's most popular science centres. Our comprehensive learning programme ensures that every visit not only links in with the National Curriculum, but provides a varied and exciting learning experience for all ages. Furthermore, as an educational charity, a trip to Explore offers exceptional value for money, including access to:
- Hundreds of interactive exhibits and special exhibitions
- Workshops covering a huge range of curriculum topics
- Entertaining and informative school shows
- Special theme days designed to challenge and excite your students
- Presenter-led seasonal star shows in our very own Planetarium
- Interactive science investigations and activities with our Live Science Team
And now there’s even more to Explore! In addition to a wide range of existing learning programmes; several new workshops, school shows and special theme days have been developed for 2009/10. These include the High Flyers special theme day, where students can celebrate the Year of Flight 2010 with a day of aviation related activities; the lab-based workshop A Question of Taste, where post-16 students use PCR to investigate their own DNA; and the Kaleidoshow, where key stage 2 and 3 students can find out more about colour and light.
There are also brand new exhibitions on offer. From 18 July onwards, visitors to Explore will enjoy an interactive movie-making experience in the Animate It! exhibition. Developed in association with Aardman Animations, the creators of Wallace & Gromit, Animate It! stimulates imagination and creativity as students learn about the process of animation, create their own characters, storyboard a movie and even make their own short films!
