Human Body Journey is a virtual reality human body workshop for primary schools, delivered in your hall by Giant Journeys across the UK and Ireland. Pupils from Reception to Year 6 travel inside the body in VR and AR, then build a life sized skeleton, in 45 minute sessions, up to six a day, with all equipment provided.
Step inside the wonders of the human body with our immersive workshop, specially designed for primary school children.
This exciting experience captivates young minds as pupils explore the marvels of how the body works using Virtual and Augmented Reality.
From the beating of the heart to the brilliance of the brain, children embark on a spectacular scientific adventure that brings learning to life.

Using Virtual and Augmented Reality, pupils are transported inside the human body, exploring its incredible systems in a way that feels exciting, immersive and easy to understand.
They can witness the beating of the heart, follow oxygen as it travels through the bloodstream, and see how food is processed through the digestive system, bringing abstract concepts to life before their eyes.
This first-hand experience helps children visualise how the body works, turning complex scientific ideas into something tangible and memorable.
As they move through the body, pupils discover how organs such as the heart, lungs and brain work together, developing a clearer understanding of how different systems support everyday life.
But the excitement doesn’t stop with digital exploration.
After stepping back out of the virtual world, pupils take part in a hands on challenge, assembling a life-sized human skeleton from individual bones.
This practical activity allows children to apply what they have learned, reinforcing key concepts through movement, discussion and teamwork.
Working together to build the skeleton encourages problem-solving, collaboration and communication, helping pupils gain confidence while deepening their understanding of human anatomy.
By combining immersive technology with tactile learning, this journey creates a meaningful learning experience that stays with pupils long after the session ends.
A great way to host a STEM day for pupils.

Why Schools Love the Human Body Journey
Questions teachers ask before booking
How much does a human body workshop cost?
A half day is £450 plus VAT for up to four sessions. A full day is £650 plus VAT for up to six sessions. Tailored quotes are available for larger schools or longer bookings.

Reception to Year 6. Up to six sessions run in one day, so a whole school can take part.
How long is each session?
Each session runs 45 minutes. Sessions fit around the school day, lunchtimes and breaks.
What do pupils do in the session?
In VR and AR, pupils watch the heart beat, follow oxygen through the bloodstream and see how food moves through the digestive system. They then work in teams to assemble a life sized human skeleton from individual bones.
What does the school need to provide?
A hall or large classroom. All VR equipment is supplied, along with the skeleton for the hands-on challenge.
How does it link to the curriculum?
The journey has strong links to science and biology. Pupils see how the heart, lungs and brain work together and how the body digests food.
Can it be the centre of a STEM day?
Yes. The Human Body Journey is a great way to host a STEM day, and it can be mixed with other VR subjects across a full day.
