School Science Shows for Science Week Ireland

Our School Science Shows are designed to captivate and inspire children, turning scientific concepts into thrilling hands-on experiences. Imagine the excitement as your students take part in the following amazing experiments:

  • Two Types of Slime – Students learn about polymers and create their own slime, exploring the properties of Non-Newtonian fluids in a fun and interactive way.
  • Hair-Raising Barbie – Using a Van Der Graaf generator, we give Barbie dolls a wild, static-charged hairstyle while explaining the science of electricity.
  • Lightsaber with Plasma Ball – Students light up “lightsabers” with a plasma ball, discovering how energy and electricity interact in a visually stunning experiment.
  • Giant Smoke Rings with Smoke Cannons – Watch as students shoot smoke rings at each other, learning about air pressure in a fun and safe environment.
  • Elephant Toothpaste Reaction – One of our most exciting demonstrations! Students witness the fast-foaming reaction of Elephant Toothpaste and learn the chemistry behind it.

These fun and interactive science shows are ideal for Science Week celebrations, bringing the wonder of STEM right to your school!

Fun and Mesmerising Mini Experiments

In addition to our major experiments, we keep the excitement going with quick, mesmerizing mini demonstrations that engage students throughout the show. Highlights include:

  • Walking Water – A simple but fascinating demonstration of capillary action that will captivate young minds.
  • Hand Boilers – Learn how heat and pressure work together as students watch liquid rise inside a hand boiler.
  • Energy Sticks – Students complete the circuit with their hands, lighting up and buzzing the energy sticks to demonstrate electrical currents in a fun, hands-on way!

These bite-sized experiments are perfect for maintaining excitement and enthusiasm throughout the science show.

STEM Workshops for Science Week Celebrations

Looking for something even more hands-on? Our STEM Workshops give students the chance to dive deeper into scientific concepts through interactive activities. Each workshop is designed to engage students while fostering creativity and critical thinking.

1. Illusions Workshop: Discover the Science of Vision

This workshop explores the fascinating relationship between the eyes and the brain:

  • Students learn about the cells and anatomy of the eye.
  • Discover how optical illusions and after-images trick the brain.
  • Hands-on activities include making thaumatropes and exploring how early animation devices like Zoetropes work!

This workshop combines science and art, making it a hit with students.

2. Slime Making Workshop: Chemistry in Action!

What better way to celebrate Science Week than by letting students make their own slime?

  • They’ll learn about long-chain polymers and how Non-Newtonian fluids behave.
  • Kids will get to take their slime home while exploring the fascinating world of chemistry!

3. Forensic Crime Scene Workshop: Become a Detective!

We bring a crime scene to your school, and your students become detectives! This workshop is packed with interactive activities:

  • Students learn to dust for fingerprints, use black lights to find hidden clues, and create shoe rubbings.
  • The session teaches problem-solving and critical thinking in a fun, hands-on way without being too scary for younger students.

4. Electricity Workshop: Electrifying Fun with 250,000 Volts!

Explore the wonders of electricity with our exciting Van Der Graaf generator:

  • Students get to see Barbie dolls have their hair stand on end as they learn about static electricity.
  • We also light up a plasma ball with a lightsaber and explain the difference between voltage and current!

This is an electrifying experience that students won’t forget!
