Will they be outside?

We try and allow children to explore Science outside, and during the day there will be opportunity to play outdoors when weather allows. Please ensure suitable clothing for the days weather and that sunscreen if required is applied before attendance.

I'm feeling anxious... what if my kid doesn't like it?

It's natural to feel anxious, but we're confident that our highly trained Mad Scientists will make even the most nervous or reluctant campers feel right at home with us! If you need us to let you know how well they're doing, simply let us know at registration and we can give you a call later in the day!

We are able to accept childcare vouchers and tax free childcare for all of our England based camp venues! Please note that we unfortunately cannot accept childcare vouchers for our After School Programmes.

Here's what parents have to say about our camps!

Both of our boys did Mad Science summer camps when they were younger, and loved the experience! It was a very fun and interactive experience for them. And counselor Beth Morrell is the best!!!

Raleigh, NC

My son attended the Earth, Space & Beyond Mad Science Camp last summer and absolutely loved it! The hours were convenient for our family, and the location was close by for us. We're sending him again to a Mad Science camp this upcoming summer. These are well run camps, in our experience, and I recommend them for people looking for a fun, science-based camp experience.

My son participated in a true "camp" with horses, swimming, fishing and hiking and he was MORE excited about this camp than anything else he's done all summer. Great job on your end!
