Only halfway through our final term of this academic year — and what a journey it’s been! ✨
Since half term, we’ve welcomed over 900 students aged 5–14 to the STEM Discovery Centre.

Our young learners have explored:
Super Smart Materials
Forces & Rocket Science
Friction & Newton’s Laws
A highlight has been our Alka-Splat activity, where students decorated beautiful bags while bringing Newton’s Third Law to life!

We’ve also been busy creating 100 linear maps of our Solar System
And the excitement continues…
Our Mission 44 project is now just 4 weeks away from its summit and celebrations!

We’ve been working with schools across and beyond Hertfordshire, and are now taking bookings for the next academic year,with spaces filling fast.
👉 If you’d like to secure your visit, book now to avoid missing out!
