Light & Colour Your center is filled with colour as the students learn about properties of light in this fun interactive science workshop Enquire Now 📚 Library & OOSH Suitable Light & Colour: Visible Science A colourful holiday workshop exploring the hidden spectrum! 🌑 ROOM DARKNESS: This works much better in the dark! Please choose a room with curtains or blinds wherever possible for the best visual experience. From absorption to reflection, children gain a strong understanding of light and its applications in everyday life through hands-on optics. What we explore: 🌈 Colour Vision: Colour addition & subtraction. 🔦 Optics: Refraction, reflection & telescopes. 💎 UV Light: Exploring luminescent minerals. 🎞️ Animation: Zoetropes & flipbooks. 🧪 Chemistry: Colour-changing chemical concoctions. ✨ Reliability You Can Trust Coordinating holiday programmes requires visually stunning content that keeps large groups engaged from start to finish. Led by a Churchill Fellow, our team has delivered spectacular light science visits for over 4 million students since 2004. Ben NewsomeFounder & Churchill Fellow Science in the Community Educator Insight (via Twitter) “Loved seeing the children investigate colour vision and optics! A high-impact workshop that makes physics truly visible.” Library Highlight “Watch the spectrum in action! The children were mesmerised by the UV light and colour-changing concoctions.” View Video on Facebook → 4M+ Students reached since 2004 Trustpilot Enquire Today Are you a Vacation Care Centre?

Colour mixing Mix primary light colours ... why are the secondary colours different to paint? Bubble Films See light split through a bubble film. Nice... and demonstrates wave theory Float that image Create a 3D floating image hovering in mid-air Magic specs See rainbows all around with these diffraction glasses Glowing rocks Some minerals fluoresce under UV light... can you identify which ones? Hidden beaker Canola oil and this beaker have almost the same refractive index... lets hide it Talking telescopes Make a telescope in class Hide me Transparent materials are quite difference to translucent ones. Cartoon capers Make a number of cartoons work with these zoetropes and flip charts Optical illusions Light can be quite tricky, can you spot how they might work? Mirror boxes Hidden compartments can create 'magical' illusions. How do they work? Optical fibre Pretty.... and it can be used to transport massive amounts of information Perfect plasma A plasma ball can demonstrate light energies... and the students love it Colourful chemistry Some chemicals react to heat and change in colour... check them out! Colour vision Our Director is colour blind... are your students? Fly's eye scopes What is the difference between human and insect eyes? Shiny disco ball Mirrors and light... what more can we say? Send images around the room! Mega lens Use this lenticular lens and magnify things, including you. Lasers Investigate how lasers work and see them through a cloud... neat!
