Home Ed Science Club with Michelle for ages 6+

Join us for a fortnightly fun, inclusive hands-on science club designed for children aged 5 and up, pitched from early years through to KS3 level. Sessions are led by Michelle Adams, an experienced science teacher with 20 years of teaching experience across KS2, KS3, and KS4.

This small-group club (maximum 12 children) focuses on practical science activities with no writing required, making it accessible and engaging for all abilities. Sessions are carefully adapted so every child can take part and enjoy exploring science through doing. 

These are high-energy, sensory-friendly workshops designed especially for curious minds and neurodiverse learners. There is no reading, writing, or sitting still required — just experimenting, and discovering.

Please see below for details of the up and coming sessions;
