Dinosaurs, life-size and all around you
Children love dinosaurs, and in a 360° dome they are life-size, all around the class. Our palaeontology films cover the geological periods, evolution and the link between dinosaurs and modern birds.
Combine a palaeontology film with our hands-on dinosaur and fossil sessions for a full prehistoric day that covers evolution and inheritance, rocks and fossils.

How long is a show?
Most 360° films run 20–40 minutes. We usually pair a film with a live, presenter-led introduction and a Q&A, so each group gets around 45–60 minutes in the dome.
Can we add a hands-on dinosaur session?
Yes. Many schools pair a palaeontology film with our dinosaur and fossil workshops to make a full prehistoric day.
How much space do we need?
A school hall or sports hall is ideal. Our domes need a flat indoor space and a standard plug socket. We will confirm the exact dome size and ceiling height when you enquire.
How many pupils can watch at once?
Typically a full class of around 30 per show, depending on age and dome size. We run back-to-back sessions so the whole year group can take part in one day.
Can we mix subjects on the same day?
Yes. Any show in the catalogue can be booked alongside others, so you can run maths for one year group and geography or space for another on the same visit.
