2026 Schedule
Magnificent Magnetism
Making the Invisible Force Visible!
What is the invisible force inside a magnet — and can we make it visible?
Children will explore how magnets attract, investigate magnetic poles and
build their own magnetic structures. They will then discover the hidden world
of magnetic fields through striking demonstrations and hands-on experiments
that reveal how this invisible force behaves.
Through prediction, observation and playful testing, children will explore surprising
magnetic effects, and may even find a way to hear magnetism!
A wonder-filled workshop designed to spark curiosity, scientific thinking and
delight in the unexpected.
Workshop: 11.00am-12.30pm
Snacks & social time: during the break & afterwards
