After school science club
These have been challenging times, and our heart goes out to everyone affected by the COVID-19 outbreak. We hope you and your family are very well and stay well.We are optimistic that we as a country are through the most uncertain times and we are looking forward to happy, fun times ahead with our ‘Junior Einsteins ‘ !
Naturally, the safety and wellbeing of everyone connected to Junior Einsteins Science Club remains our priority. We will continue to follow the latest advice from the Government and the World Health Organisation & our schools while the Coronavirus (COVID-19) situation continues.
We will go ahead with our science clubs with all recommended safety measures in place. We will take advice from Willow Park and follow all of the schools policies and procedures to best keep our ‘Junior Einsteins safe and healthy.
We are in close conversation with our schools & scientists. . If for any reason we are unable to proceed with our scheduled after-school science clubs due to covid-19 restrictions we will of course provide a refund.
Now, let’s focus on the Fun Exciting hands-on STEM!
Our values at Junior Einsteins Science Club are strong in STEM learning, but also in developing in our ‘Junior Einsteins ‘ a love of both experimenting and learning. We do this through messy creative fun, nourishing children’s natural curiosity & imagination, children discover how to learn from mistakes, embrace failure, engage in teamwork and practise perseverance. Junior Einsteins Science Club ultimately teaches primary school children, our ‘Junior Einsteins ‘ ‘how to think not what to think’ best preparing them for our ever changing world.
