Young coders hit all the right notes and programme a BBC micro:bit to play some cool beats in our fun music-themed session. If you’ve ever wondered how a mobile phone or tablet knows which way is up, it’s all down to an accelerometer – and we’ll be coding the touch-sensitive gadget to play sounds from different movements. So when our movers and shakers all get together, they’ll make a chart-topping orchestra of noise!

We regret to announce this event has been cancelled. 

We are cancelling our public events until further notice and will review our programme after Easter. If you require any further information, please contact us. In the meantime, please keep up-to-date with Science Oxford by following us on social media. Thank you for your support and understanding. We look forward to welcoming you back to our Science Oxford Centre soon.

Families could be eligible for these places for several reasons; for example, if your child receives free school meals or is a looked-after child.
