Wed23Apr2025Wed21May20254.20P TO 5.20PMTrinity Centre, Cambridge Science Park CB4 0FN
Acience Club resumes on Wednesday 23rd April! Across these five sessions we will be exploring our survival skills and thinking how we can use science to help cope with a new disease. This is known as HAVOC, and has infected millions of people, making them develop strange behaviours, including a tendency to be a little bit bitey!
A small band of elite scientists, codenamed STEMClub, i.e. your young people, will be the group who have survived the initial apocalypse and escaped to a secret laboratory in the woods outside Cambridge. Unfortunately the lab has not been used for a while, and they had to escape quickly, so there are not as many essential provisions in the hide-out as they might want. Can your young people work together to complete challenges to demonstrate resilience, creativity and scientific skills to help others survive the apocalypse?
These sessions are aimed at ages 7-11.
Science Club will take place every Wednesday between 4:20-5:20pm from 23rd April - 21st May, and is at Cambridge Science Centre (The Trinity Centre, Cambridge Science Park, Milton Road, Cambridge, CB4 0FN). There are bike stands and car parking available on site. You can sign your young people up for the club here: https://forms.gle/5NwThK1fqHGbahYCA
We are also able to offer a complementary minibus to provide return transport from Campkin Road Community Centre to the Science Centre for those that need help accessing our location. Spaces for this are provided on a first come first served basis, so please only sign up for this if it is needed. You can found the minibus registration here: https://forms.gle/snZNrpVCCkMgfvYt5
(Only complete this form once you have completed the Science Club Booking Form)We look forward to seeing your young people from 23rd April!
