Summer Camps

Two children interact with an exhibit in Forest Lane.

Enjoy science-powered fun at Summer Camp

Explore the science behind your favourite sports. Prepare for a journey into outer space. Mix up a batch of chemistry fun. Every day is a new adventure at Camp!

Our weekly Camp programs are perfect for curious kids aged 4 to 12. Camps are either full-day or half-day, depending on the age of the child. Campers will have a blast as they explore exhibit halls, build new friendships and take part in hands-on science activities led by our enthusiastic Camp counsellors.
