Bring after-school Science Club to life with a complete full-year programme of engaging, low-prep investigations and builds. This resource provides 36 weekly sessions (one for each week of the academic year) designed to build curiosity, practical skills and confidence across Chemistry, Physics, Biology, Earth Science, Engineering and STEM communication.

What’s included
Full academic year overview organised by half-term
36 complete week-by-week sessions, each with:

• Title + hook questions to grab attention instantly
• Clear “science behind it” explanation (teacher-friendly, easy to narrate)

• Numbered, student-friendly step-by-step method (ideal for printing or projecting)
• Risk assessment table for every session: Hazard / Who is at risk / Precautions

What the year covers

• Big “wow” chemistry openers (e.g. Elephant Toothpaste, pH rainbow, combustion demos)
• • Physics and engineering challenges (e.g. balloon rockets, egg drop, elastic band cars, bridges)
• • Biology & forensics sessions (e.g. microbes simulation, fingerprints, circulation model)
• • Earth, environment & space (e.g. crater impacts, rockets, filtration, greenhouse model, weather station)
• • Electricity and STEM builds (e.g. circuits game, lemon batteries, solar ovens)
• • A celebratory end-of-year Science Showcase session + Science Fair prep
