Human Body – Organs & Body Systems

Hands-on Science Incursion on our major body systems!

Students will gain an appreciation of the complexity of the human body and life in this fun school science workshop when your classroom becomes a biology lab!

In this anatomy workshop, we help students understand;

  • the main organs and their functions in the human digestive, respiratory and circulatory systems
  • how the human digestive, respiratory and circulatory systems work together
  • how the circulatory and respiratory systems respond to physical activity
  • how our adaptations in structure and behaviour aid us to survive.

Online Class Version

We’ve run live interactive distance programs since 2010 and are highly experienced in making online classes engaging for students on a variety of web conferencing platforms.

  • Our online classes include demonstrations, Q&A, and hands-on activities (you will receive a materials list upon booking).
  • Full child protections are in place
  • We usually connect to classes & homes via Zoom, however if you wish to use a different software we can work with you on getting the connection live.
