The Circus Lab delivers unforgettable, hands-on science workshops that use circus skills to make scientific concepts come alive for 7 to 14 year olds. Forget dusty old textbooks and chalk-streaked blackboards. We’re all about fun, colour and movement – science in motion that kids can feel, experience and remember.
By combining the excitement of movement and circus skills with curriculum-linked science, we help children build curiosity, confidence and a deeper understanding of the world around them – all through play, creativity and physical learning.
We empower schools, holiday clubs, and families to spark a lifelong love of science by turning classrooms into big top circus tents.
At Circus Lab, Science Doesn’t Sit Still – It Soars!
