Science Detectives

Service Description

Step into the world of scientific investigation, where young scientists become disease detectives! Through hands-on experiments, practical investigations and exciting scientific challenges, children will explore the fascinating world of microorganisms and uncover how infectious diseases spread, how our bodies defend themselves and how scientists work to identify, investigate and control outbreaks. Young detectives will examine the differences between bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites, discover how scientists investigate invisible microbes, and explore the science behind infection prevention and treatment. By following clues, analysing evidence and testing ideas, children will develop their observation, critical-thinking, problem-solving and scientific investigation skills. Could your young scientist piece together the evidence, uncover the mystery and solve the case? What will we explore? 🦠 Different microorganisms — bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites 🔬 How scientists identify microbes 🧫 How infectious diseases spread 🛡️ How the immune system responds to infection 💊 Prevention and treatment of disease 🕵️ How scientists investigate outbreaks using clues and evidence 🧪 Scientific investigation, critical thinking and problem-solving
