Hearts & Lungs
February 13, 2027
Science Oxford Centre
Science Club
Ages 5-9
Mini-medics get hearts beating, lungs pumping and muscles moving at our fun anatomy themed Science Club for National Heart month. Run experiments to investigate lung capacity and test your own hot air! From anatomy to autopsy, play games and work out how lungs and hearts work together to bring oxygen to our bodies. Dissect a real animal heart* or build a ‘lift the flap’ human organ model and a working model of a lung in the ribcage using balloons and plastic bottles.
Our ‘amazing anatomy’ workshop series stimulates curiosity and brings biology to life, building critical STEM higher order thinking skills through observation and making predictions, testing, data logging and analysing experiment findings.
*please note the dissection uses an animal heart sourced from a local butcher
