Bringing the Excitement of Space to your School or Group!

 

  • Handling Real Meteorites

  • Exploring Space Travel

  • and more...

 

Space is a fascinating topic, but can be challenging to bring to life in the classroom (and can also generate questions that can be difficult to answer for the non-specialist teacher!).

​

I will really engage your class or group with the topic of space in ways that are exciting and enhance learning,  and provide your group with an unforgettable experience.

​

Uniquely, Science Horizons can provide a range of exciting space workshops so that every pupil can have an exciting space-based learning experience!

How Much Is A Visit?

 

Our pricing is simple, and designed to allow smaller as well as larger schools to find a visit cost-effective. Pricing is by time spent,  rather than content,  so for a given budget I might  I can work with several groups having planetarium shows only, or smaller groups having a more in-depth learning experience. I would be delighted to discuss with you how we  can bring space to life for your group.

Having a planetarium visit you also saves on time and travel costs for coaches, as well as the logistic and safeguarding challenges of taking children off-site.
