Important Notice Regarding Food Allergies
While the Scienceworks catering outlets endeavour to accommodate guests with food allergies or intolerances, due to the potential for trace allergens in the working environment and supplied ingredients, we cannot guarantee completely allergy-free meals.
Encourage the budding Einstein in your family with great favourites such as crystal growing, erupting volcano kits, weather stations and crystal radios. Microscopes, telescopes and gyroscopes are all here too.
We also have plenty of books in the fields of science and astronomy, experiments, encyclopaedias, planispheres, and a large range of astronomy posters.
Also stocked are glow in the dark stars, stickers and space mobiles, puzzles and mind-stimulating gizmos and gadgets.
