All our experiences are fully accessible and world leading for the inclusion of PMLD, SEN, Wheelchair, Hearing/Visually impaired audiences.

Our education team of science communicators and astronomers are extremely well versed in teaching children, with over 10 years of experience in teaching across the UK and abroad. Many of our shows are presenter-led and therefore capable of being adapted to suit pupils’ interests and any special educational needs.

We offer totally unlimited performances during the visit, which allows you to pick as shows as you like and run them in any combination you like. So in any one day, we can cover multiple topics, themes and events all with our planetariums.

Hybrid Games provides outstanding workshops to bridge the gap between play and learning STEM. They have worked in schools and festivals all over the UK and continue to launch games about unusual subjects, including viruses, antibiotics, chemical reactions, and the menstrual cycle. They work hard to provide games suitable for those with Neurodiverse brains, as accessibility is at the heart of their values.

Our award-winning, state-of-the-art multi-purpose planetariums cover a huge variety of subjects including: Astronomy, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics, Dinosaurs, History, Geography, Geology, Music, Art, Culture, Dance and more!

Suitable for a variety of drones, including our standard ‘child-friendly drone’.

Crashworthy – Since crashes are inevitable, this unique design will keep propellers and motors from being damaged.

LED Lights – Unlike other non-camera quads, these are equipped with LED lights and it will help beginners to recognise which orientation is the front especially while night-flying, giving a more convenient novice operation.

Headless Mode – Usually the forward direction of a flying multi-rotor is the same as the nose direction. In headless mode, the forward direction has nothing to do with nose direction. The direction will be the same as your transmitter.

3D Flips Function – Multifunctions like 3D flips, forward/backward, up/down, left/right, sideways flight, headless mode, one-key return, H/L speed.

Easy to Control – 2.4G 4CH transmitter and for easy control, lightweight airframe with nice durability and 6-axis gyro which can have more stable flying and be easy to control.
