Party Numbers
For the best total experience, smaller groups work best with the ideal number of guests around 10. However, the standard 60 minute party package does cater for a maximum of 20 children. Remember to include siblings in the count, they will want to join in too!
If required, we can cater for larger numbers of guests (between 20 and 40 children) with two presenters.
Party Duration
We find the best length for full engagement and participation in our science parties is 60 minutes. However, we do have a 90 minute option available if required.
Venue Requirements
To ensure your party is a success, there are a few things you need to consider about the venue. Following are the mandatory requirements:
To WOW! and amaze we need space, preferably undercover in case of inclement weather. If inside is not an option, a garage, marquee, undercover deck or carport are the best alternatives providing the area is in a sheltered space.
We need two large tables – a presentation table at the front, and a worktable at the back of the room or close by to accommodate all junior scientists. Chairs are not needed.
Some of our parties require an outdoor area to launch rockets, create bubbles, make slime etc. The really messy parties require a grassed area to perform experiments
Our parties require the use of a rubbish bin and a sink with running water.
We need access to the venue 30 minutes prior and 30 minutes at the end of the party to set up and pack up.
