Bring Science to Life with CSI Journey

The CSI Journey puts pupils in the role of forensic scientists as they work together to solve a staged school hall crime. Children practise real-life techniques such as fingerprinting, fibre analysis and DNA modelling. This interactive workshop encourages close observation, logic and teamwork, turning scientific concepts into something tangible and fun.

Unearth Prehistoric Secrets in the Jurassic Dig

The Jurassic Dig lets pupils channel their inner palaeontologist as they excavate life-sized fossil replicas in search of dinosaur remains. Using tablets, children bring extinct creatures to life through Augmented Reality, visually comparing scale and movement as they learn classification and evolution. The experience can be capped off with a whole-school assembly featuring Reggie the Rex, our animatronic Tyrannosaurus.

Step Into History with the WW2 Codebreaking Journey

In this immersive history experience, pupils step into the shoes of wartime codebreakers in 1940. Sessions include decoding top-secret messages using Morse Code, active problem solving and learning about the secret language work crucial to global history. The workshop builds historical empathy while improving memory, resilience and logical reasoning.

Explore the Body and Beyond Through Virtual Reality

Our VR-based science workshops combine cutting-edge tools with cross-curricular content. Pupils can journey inside the human body, follow red blood cells from lungs to brain, and build a skeleton from life-sized models. In our Space VR session, they travel through the solar system, guided by real planetary science delivered in an adventure-filled format.

Dive Under the Ocean with the Under the Sea VR Journey

This workshop brings marine biology to life using immersive VR to explore habitats and learn about sea life up close. From dolphins and sea turtles to apex predators like great white sharks, pupils experience ecosystems in a way that builds both curiosity and environmental awareness.

Discover the MiniWorlds Beneath Our Feet

In the MiniWorlds session, pupils explore bugs, insects and ecosystems up close. The VR content draws them into environments like forests, gardens and underground tunnels, where they observe organisms like ants, beetles and butterflies within their natural habitats. It’s a powerful introduction to food chains, adaptation and life cycles.

Celebrate Culture and Movement with Indian Dance Journey

Our Indian Dance Journey brings the culture and rhythm of Kathak dance to your school. Using storytelling, movement and traditional Mudra hand gestures, pupils explore Indian heritage while boosting confidence and coordination. This workshop is ideal for cultural enrichment and global citizenship themes.

Connect Sport, History and Geography with Sport and VR Journey

This high-energy workshop gives pupils a virtual tour of historic Olympic stadiums before challenging them to real-time sprints using laser timing. Each group represents a country, allowing lessons in cultural geography and sports history to unfold in motion. It’s a great option to combine PE with wider learning.
