World of Colour
10 August: We see our beautiful planet in millions of colours. Join us in a journey of discovery through experiments and science fun to observe how eyes can see in different ways and why.
-
This colourful, fun workshop aims to discover in a creative hands on way how important our world of colour is.
Investigate why sometimes blue is hot and red is cold, how to see the amazing world of UltraViolet and InfraRed and why your pets can outsmart us by seeing what we can't.
Through this ‘world of colour’ workshop there are plenty of opportunities to get ‘creative’ and learn how science has copied nature in many ways.
-
Please note that the workshop is for children only. We actively encourage adults to leave their children with us unless they require one to one support (please let us know in advance if your child has any additional needs). A special offer admission into The Centre for adults and siblings that are not booked onto the workshop, is being offered. See below for further details.

SPECIAL OFFER ADMISSION
For adults and any other children in your group (up to a reasonable limit) who would like to visit The Centre while their child/children participate in the workshop then we are able to offer special discounted admission of just £7 per person. Please note however, that the cost of the workshop is for the workshop only. If you would like your child/children to visit The Centre either after or before the workshop then you will have to purchase separate admission at the discounted rate.
Discounted admission can be purchased at reception on the day. If you have purchased discounted admission for the child/children participating on a morning workshop then you will need to show your receipt when registering your child/children onto the workshop. They will then receive a wristband which they must wear to help staff at the end of the workshop.
