This September, join us for one of our special Home Educator Days. On Thursday 18th and Friday 26th September 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.
This September our theme is Build, Code, Play! 💻
• Get hands-on in our bookable Makey Makey workshop and explore circuits and conductivity through creative experimentation.
• Code with your hands at our drop-in activity, making your very own binary code bracelet – a fun way to learn the language of computers!
• Play your way through STEM-packed exhibits and interactive zones, perfect for curious minds.
You will be able to book online for the following…
