Entries are still open until 1st July 2026 so CLICK HERE to enter our ‘Curiosity’ competition.
British Science Week 2026 celebrated the theme “Curiosity: What’s Your Question?”—a brilliant reminder that every great discovery begins with a simple moment of wonder. Children are naturally curious: they ask Why is the sky blue?, How do rockets fly?, Why do magnets stick? and What would happen if…? This year’s theme encourageed pupils to embrace those questions and see them as the starting point for exploration, investigation and discovery.
Our hands-on primary school science workshops are designed to turn that natural curiosity into meaningful learning. Through exciting experiments, surprising demonstrations and interactive challenges, pupils became young investigators—making predictions, testing ideas and discovering the science behind the world around them. Rather than simply being given answers, children were encouraged to explore their own questions, develop hypotheses and see what happens when they put their ideas to the test.
By combining exciting interactive experiments and plenty of opportunities for questioning and discussion, our workshops transform British Science Week into an unforgettable learning experience. Most importantly, they help children understand that science isn’t just about knowing the right answers—it’s about having the curiosity to ask the next question….!
