This February, join us for one of our special Home Educator Days. On Friday 27th February we won’t take ANY school bookings and we’ll be running additional learning activities – JUST for Home Educator families!
Please note that the museum is still open to the general public on these days. However, we are restricting visitor numbers to ensure that you can still have the best possible experience.
Our upcoming Home Educator Day theme is… Health!
packed with hands-on activities, real-world science and career inspiration.
⭐ Bookable Science Show – From the Chew to the Poo
Follow a banana sandwich on its hilarious journey through the human body! Children will discover how the digestive system works, why a balanced diet matters, how nutrients are absorbed — and yes, how waste leaves the body… in the most memorable way possible!
👩⚕️ Explore Careers in Health
Meet real NHS professionals from Calderdale & Huddersfield NHS Foundation Trust, including Physiotherapists, Occupational Therapists, Speech & Language Therapists, Dietitians and Midwives along with teams from Calderdale Council. Children can try interactive activities linked to each role and explore the world of healthcare careers.
📚Find out more about further education options
We’ll also be joined by the team from Calderdale College who will be here to share information about courses for home-educated students as well as adult courses for any parents or family members who may be interested in courses at the college designed for students aged 19 and over.
Plus – All About Me
Explore our largest gallery and find out more about our amazing bodies. Join our Enablers too for some pop-up, hands-on, body themed activities.
In addition to dedicated activities, you will have our 4 large galleries to explore (plus 2 galleries and Creativity Space just for the under 5’s) with tons of interactive exhibits.
