Programmes for the lower stage

Join us in the world of wooden robots! In this creative workshop program for younger school children, we combine a fun story with playful hands-on work. Young builders will first prepare all the necessary parts while practicing simple counting and sorting by shapes and sizes. They will try sanding wood, hammering nails, and threading beads onto wire. In the end, they will complete their robot according to their own imagination and take it home as a unique memento of their workshop adventure.

Step into the world of colourful transformations and chemical mysteries! Students will become detectives, exploring common substances such as milk, soap, toothpaste, or egg yolk at four stations: in the kitchen, bathroom, fairground, and laboratory. Using natural indicators like red cabbage juice or turmeric, they will uncover what is acidic, alkaline, or neutral, while revealing clues leading to the "hidden message".

They will see how acids affect teeth or how bases neutralise odours.

A playful story, colourful experiments, and practical examples connect science with everyday life, awakening curiosity and joy of discovery in children.

* The programme is primarily intended for pupils and students who are capable of working with the standard school curriculum without significant specialised pedagogical support.

Why do leaves change colour? What does a squirrel do in winter? Where do the birds return from? In this playful and experiential programme, students will explore the secrets of nature throughout the year. They will become little researchers, observing seeds under a magnifying glass, discovering hidden pigments in leaves, playing animal survival strategy games, and learning how and when to help wildlife. Additionally, everyone will create their own "portfolio of seasons" to take home. Weather permitting, we will also explore the STC rooftop garden. We will play, engage in research, and nature will tell us the most fascinating stories!

Join us on a journey to a world where money comes to life! In the program, participants become little managers of their assets, earning game banknotes, shopping in a fictional store, planning, saving, and spending. A highlight is the experiment with UV light, where they uncover counterfeit banknotes and discover that money has its secrets. In model life situations, they consider what is necessary, what is a wish, and when it pays to save. At the end, they will try shopping in a prepared store and simply record how much they spent and how much they have left. The entire program culminates in making their own piggy bank, which they take home as a reminder that managing money can be done wisely and responsibly.

* The program is primarily intended for pupils and students who are able to work with the standard school curriculum without significant specialized pedagogical support.

Will you recognize what grows in our fields, what the peanut plant looks like or the cinnamon tree? What is behind the journey of food to the plate? How to distinguish healthy food from unhealthy and what are those small letters on the packaging? Do you know how to shop and treat food responsibly?

On the Trail of Our Breakfast is an interactive educational program that opens doors to sustainability, environmental education, and also a healthy lifestyle. Its aim is to motivate children to think about the origins of food, their eating habits, and their impact on the planet.
