STEM-Based Adventures That Inspire

Our science and STEM-focused workshops offer play with purpose. They bring science to life by combining narrative, critical thinking, and real-world problem-solving, all within an exciting school setting.

In the CSI Journey, pupils become junior forensic scientists. They investigate a fictional crime scene, collect and analyse evidence, study DNA and fingerprints, and work together to solve the case. Ideal for developing logic, teamwork, and understanding scientific methods, this workshop is a firm favourite across all key stages.

The Human Body VR Journey allows children to explore internal systems like the heart, lungs, and digestive tract through state-of-the-art virtual experiences. After stepping inside the body virtually, they reinforce learning by assembling a life-sized skeleton working together in groups.

For space-loving learners, the Space VR Journey offers awe-inspiring exploration of the solar system. From Mercury to Neptune, children travel virtually while absorbing detailed facts about each planet, using visuals and interactivity to anchor comprehension.

These workshops are more than just a fun day. One Year 5 class in Stoke-on-Trent solved our CSI Journey’s diamond heist while learning scientific skills that tied neatly into their curriculum objectives. By the end of the term, they were still referencing techniques from the activity.

Immersive History and Culture Workshops

Our cross-curricular workshops also bring history and cultural understanding into vivid focus.

In the WW2 Codebreaking Journey, students step into wartime Britain and become part of a secret operations team. Working with symbolic puzzles and logic-based tasks, they decipher communications using movement and Morse code. Along the way, they experience the challenges and ingenuity of wartime life.

The Indian Dance Journey builds cultural appreciation through expressive movement, storytelling, and rhythm. Pupils learn traditional Indian hand gestures, footwork and cultural context while improving their coordination and respect for diverse traditions.

For young learners who love the prehistoric, our Jurassic Dig Journey is unmissable. Children become fossil hunters, using tools to explore sandpits filled with lifelike fossil replicas. Using tablets, pupils trigger Augmented Reality features that allow dinosaurs to appear in real-time as they uncover clues. The session can end with a visit from Reggie, our animatronic T-Rex, keeping excitement sky-high and learning locked in.

Adventures for Every Type of Learner

Pupils with a love of nature enjoy our Miniworlds VR Journey. Designed for younger children learning about habitats and living things, this experience shrinks pupils down to explore the ecosystem from a mini beast’s perspective.

In a similar style, our Under the Sea VR Journey showcases marine life in breathtaking 360-degree detail, from coral reefs to ocean floor environments. Pupils explore adaptation and habitats through immersive visuals and interactive discovery.

Our Sport and VR Journey adds energy and teamwork. Children explore Ancient Olympia virtually, then take to the floor to try Olympic-style physical challenges, including running against simulated records using light-sensor gates. It brings history, sport, and competition together in one memorable session.
