What has been done to make the experience COVID-secure?
We’ve taken steps to make your visit as COVID-secure as we possibly can, so you can visit without worrying about a thing:
- No more than 2 school bubbles will be on site at the same time;
- Techinquest will be ‘zoned’ so that classes remain separate throughout their visit;
- You’ll receive a timetable for your visit to include 45 minute sessions on each level plus a show in the theatre and lunch.
How much does it cost?
Entrance to the exhibition, which now consists of over 100 different hands-on exhibits, is £5 per child. Entry to the science theatre, should you wish to see a show, is an additional £2 per pupil.
Teachers accompanying students will be free, as always!
How do I book?
We’d love to welcome you back to Techniquest as soon as the doors open — but do bear in mind that as we are limiting the opening hours for the time being, so that we can be as COVID-secure as possible, it’s best to get a date in your diary as soon as possible.
Simply fill in our enquiry form, and a member of our team will get back to you as quickly as they can.
