Welcome to the new location of Cambridge Science Centre! In this first session we will be exploring the exhibits and learning more about all the topics we have to discover in the centre. But what can your young people learn and what questions do they have about the world around them? The session starts at 1pm and ends at 3pm.

What do we mean when we ask a question and how can we use that to reach a goal? We will be exploring these topics by investigating the difference between accuracy and precision when reaching a target. The session starts at 1pm and finishes at 3pm. (Please note: this session is designed to be run outside. Depending on weather conditions this session may have to be altered slightly, or swapped with another session from this block)

Falling or Flying will provide the opportunity for a deeper exploration of some of our exhibits. This will allow your young people to investigate the best ways for flight, floating and falling while thinking about how we answer questions where there are a lot of things that can change. The session starts at 1pm and ends at 3pm.

What will float and why do we want to know? We will be exploring sinking and floating in this session, including how to make heavier objects float and is it just solids that can float, to help your young people understand why we ask questions. What are we aiming to learn and why do we want to? The session starts at 1pm and ends at 3pm.

In this session we are exploring gravity, energy transfers and chain reactions, helping us to learn how we build on questions. Once we can answer one, how can we bring in a further question or area to explore? The session starts at 1pm and ends at 3pm.

Throughout this half-term your young people have been sharing their own questions about the world around them. But just what are the answers? This session will explore some of the topics your young people are curious about and help to provide answers to their questions. The session starts at 1pm and ends at 3pm.
