A portable exhibit with a pump connected to tanks of water via tubes

Portables

Our portable science exhibits are designed to extend the reach of our hands-on science centre and encourage active, discovery-based learning. 

These portable science exhibits are a great way to bring exciting science to schools and colleges that may find it difficult to visit us, providing the opportunity to explore intriguing scientific phenomenon in the classroom and develop observational and critical thinking skills. 

The Portables can be used in many different ways or environments and with a variety of audiences - all that is required is a table and for some, access to a mains electricity supply. There are 12 to choose from, and a set of 8 fits into an average sized car. To find out more or to make a booking please email portables@wethecurious.org
