Your Body: How it Works!
13 August: Half day workshops for 6-8 years and 9-11 years. The body is amazing! From your brain to your big toe there is so much stuff packed in that keeps us alive. How does it all work together? Come and find out on this journey from your head to your heels and all the bits in between.

This workshop looks at how the body actually works. How does your brain tell your feet to move? Electricity of course! How does your stomach digest your food? Chemistry of course! How does your blood get to your toes and back again? Through a pump and some valves of course!
The body is very complicated and uses biology, chemistry and even physics to keep going.
We will be learning about the skeleton, digestion, the heart, kidneys, lungs and the brain.
For the older age group (9-11 years) we will be extracting DNA from strawberries.
