Mini Professors is now running in your area! This innovative and fun class for pre-school children will open up a whole new world of scientific adventure to your child. Every week we cover a new and exciting topic and each lesson is packed full of experiments, singing, stories and loads of fun. The classes are very popular, so book early to avoid disappointment.
Feel free to visit a class but please call in advance to ensure places are available.
Welcome to Mini Professors, a science program that has been designed specifically for 2-5 year olds. We aim to make science fun and enjoyable for pre-school children.
We hold separate sessions for 2-3 year olds and 3-5 year olds. Every class is different, with a completely new and exciting scientific topic being taught each week, so your little one (and you) can attend for 2 years and experience something new each week. We cover everything from polymers to dinosaurs, maths to tropical rainforests and much, much more.
Our Mini Professors get to wear their own mini lab coats and learn about the basic principles of scientific experimentation, whilst having loads of fun and generally getting stuck in.
A typical class starts with our Mini Professors Welcome Song, followed by an introduction to today's topic, with pictures and props, then our first experiment, where we encourage all our Mini Professors and their grownups to join in (and maybe get messy!). Next we have a short video, related to the scientific topic, then a story followed by another fantastic science experiment. At the end of the lesson we summarise what we've learnt and end with the Mini Professors Goodbye Song and (very importantly!), each child is given a sticker
Places are strictly limited and therefore early booking is advised.
At Mini Professors we are passionate about science. Our theme tune’s opening line is ‘Science is all around us’ and this reflects the ethos of our lessons. We feel that all children have a great thirst for learning from a young age and therefore, should be given every opportunity to develop and learn new skills and wonder at the world around them.
The Mini Professors classes provide a warm and welcoming environment in which young children can not only explore and marvel at science but we also encourage many life skills, such as asking and answering questions, turn taking, sharing and socialising.
