Experiment with Science at Cape Gate
Let your kids experiment with science and learn about all things physics this October school holiday!
Capegate Shopping Centre will be hosting a science workshop from 28 September until 6 October. Kids between the ages of 6 - 12 will be able to experience the wonders of science by making their own take-home lava lamps and slime as well as partake in a group science experiment. Younger kids, between the ages of 3 – 5, will be able to join in on a sensory workshop, learning about cloud combustion, magnetic pulls, sinking and floating objects, and more.
To get the most out of the workshops, age groups have been split into junior (3-5 years old) and senior (6-12 years old) areas.

Only 14 little ones will be allowed into the workshop at a time and will be able to visit various science stations, which includes a:
