You will need to register 1 ticket per child taking part (plus adult tickets). Once you have registered for your ticket(s), we will contact you with further information. A packed lunch space will be available in the museum, or you can go to our cafe.
Once you have registered, you will be provided with information about the different studies that your child can participate in. The Science Adventures team will need your consent for your young person/people to participate in the studies.
All participation is voluntary, and you can select the studies you wish your child to participate in. If you do not wish to participate in any of the research, please still come along to enjoy the Psychology and Science activities. If you are unsure about the day and what it is like to be part of studies, please do not hesitate to contact us, and we will be glad to talk you through the events.
Science Adventures sessions are run by researchers in developmental psychology who are building a new initiative to improve the accessibility of science to families in Newcastle through direct outreach, and build partnerships between the local community and the School of Psychology
