Science in a Van : School Visits

First up, thank you and don't forget, we come to you. That means there's no additional travel costs, recruiting parent helpers or the paperwork that comes with going off-site. You don’t have to stress. Between us we have decades of experience! We are passionate about what we do and are proud that Science in a Van has been touring Aotearoa since 2011. You and your students will be part of a memorable, engaging and worthwhile experience.

Primary and Intermediate schools can use this form to book or register to or request more information. ECE's will need to use the ECE booking form.

The Science in a Van Experience

Timetable (we can adjust times to fit with your bell times):

  • 9.00: Science in a Van arrives and sets up (usually in the hall or another big space)
  • 9.45-10.30: Science Show 1
  • 11.30-12.15: Science Show 2
  • 12.15-12.45: Science in a Van packs up and leaves everything nice and tidy

Just want to book one science show?

  • If your school has fewer than 160 students, we offer a single show suitable for all ages!
  • If a single science show for your syndicate works best, we’d are happy to consider that option too.

We bring everything we need. All we require is:

  • An inside space, ideally your school hall or other large space.
  • Access to a power socket near the performance space.
  • Access to a sink, like the hall kitchen, before and after the show.
  • A normal sized car park as close to the performance space as possible OR step free access to the performance space (we have trolleys).
  • No unsupervised students left in the performance space/hall.

Investment
  • $650+gst per show. This covers up to 100 students.
  • You can have more than 100 students in a show. Each additional student costs $6.50+gst (eg: 110 students $715+gst).
  • You can have less than 100 students in a show too. There is a minimum charge of $650+gst.
  • You won't pay anything if your booking clashes with planned Union Industrial Action or unforeseen events like a Covid lockdown situation.
  • If your venue has tricky access (e.g., stairs or a high loading dock), a $100+GST fee applies for early setup. 98% school/community halls and MLEs are fine, but this will help you determine if extra setup is needed.
