Welcome to Science Adventures!
Science Adventures is a free, multi-day science-based event during the school holidays for children aged 5-11 years old. The event will last 2.5 hours and include fun activities and demonstrations where families can learn about psychology and science. Examples of fun activities are: How does the brain work? How do animals think about the world? At the same event, families will experience science firsthand by participating in a range of psychology studies. All the studies have been designed for children at primary school, and should last no longer than 25 minutes. We do ask that parents stay with their children for the duration of the event. We will also be providing refreshments, an activity booklet and goody bags!
