Get eco-friendly and make your own renewable energy at this month’s Earth Day-themed club. Spot seasonal changes in our woodland, and see how wildlife might be affected by climate change. Bright sparks create electricity with our circuit-challenge in the workshop, and take a simple test to discover your carbon footprint! Investigate whether the sun or the wind creates the most ‘planet power’ and make solar panel experiments or mini wind-turbines to test outside or at home. You can take home our Nature Club seed-paper bookmark for Earth Day, and plant wildflowers in a green space this spring!

Event Details

All Saturday Club sessions must be accompanied by an adult. These family workshops are designed for you and your child to learn from each other and work together while trying out new things.

Nature Club is usually held in our workshop space, with some outdoor activities in most sessions, weather permitting. Explore the natural world in different ways each month, where you will be making the most of the beautiful surroundings at the Science Oxford Centre. With ponds, woodlands and meadows on our doorstep, children can explore and investigate the plants and animals that live alongside us, discover the simple beauty of natural objects and learn how everything in an ecosystem is interconnected.

Additional Support:

Our skilled staff ensure that every child can access the activities and differentiate to engage all children.
If your child has specific additional needs, please get in touch via [email protected] to discuss how they can be best supported.

Science Oxford is committed to inclusion, and we recognise that cost is sometimes a barrier so are working with schools and community groups to provide funded places to individuals to remove the barriers where we can.
