About

Have you ever wondered why some sounds are loud and others are quiet? Or why notes can have a high or low pitch? Come and find out at Science Time: Music and Sound! 

Science Time gets little scientists involved in a fun and interactive learning experience. Each session starts with a question. Children and their caregivers work together to investigate, discover, and then share their findings. Hands-on experiments, activities and crafts help children to explore the topic further. The session finishes with a demonstration and an activity sheet so you can continue your STEM journey at home. 

Bookings open 24 October 2025.
