British Science Week at Life Science Centre

Monday 15 March 2027 · 10am to 3pm · Life Science Centre, Times Square, Newcastle upon Tyne.

Life sets aside workshop places for home educators during British Science Week. Its November listing gives age bands for the labs and leaves the workshop themes to be announced. A learner who has a particular topic in mind can check the organiser’s programme when choosing a session.

A workable day for a family

The organiser expects school groups until 2pm. If your child prefers quieter spaces, ask which part of the building usually has room for a break. You can explore the exhibits around your workshop time, so a short list of two favourite things to see can be more practical than planning a route through every gallery.

Life lists the workshop plus centre entry at £12.50 per child, with one accompanying adult included. Under-11s need an adult in the workshop and older children’s adults should stay in the centre. Check the March workshop listing and book directly with Life.
