Then we are the right nerds for you!
Let us develop an awesome Community Outreach program for your company that is educational AND super engaging.
​
If you are a company looking to extend your community outreach and engage on a deeper level, SciencePlay Kids can design and develop a bespoke program around your philosophy to deliver to schools in your community or at events/spaces within your community. Think sustainability, conservation (nature, habitats, water, climate etc), engineering, renewable energy sources, environment, technology, design and creativity in science, health, women in science, science in art etc. We generate unique science equipment and tools, designed specifically for your program.
​
We have worked with Zoos Victoria, Museums Victoria, TAC, Hobsons Bay Council, Wyndham Council, Queen Victoria Market, Western Autistic Society, Transurban, West Gate Tunnel Project, North East Link Project, NIMBA, CoHealth, GPT group, DHHS, Loco Group and more....
To dicuss your nect community outreach event, book in a chat with Dr. Loz
We run drop-in style explorations that are inclusive and accessible and can be engaged with by children from age 5 to around age 12 (although, we have often had groups of passing teenagers join in too)! In some of our bigger programs, we’ve reached around 600 people in 3 hours!
​
Either for weekly kids club facilitation or a pop up for the school holidays, we have a huge range of topics and activities to suit your calendar.
Ready to make science an everyday conversation with your community? Book us now for your next event.

"Dr Loz and the SciencePlay Kids team were fantastic to work with, designing activities relevant to our campaign and appropriate for a broad age range. The staff were highly engaging, knowledgeable, and friendly. We saw dwell time in the centre increase while the event was live, with kids engrossed in the activities and relaxing with the STEM library. It was a pleasure to have Science Play Kids run an event for us at Waurn Ponds Shopping Centre and we hope to have them back again."
