Camp Quality Science Museum Visit

Camp Quality took a group of over 50 campers and companions on an educational visit to the Science Museum in TST last Saturday.

With the aim of facilitating our campers to explore and operate the Science Museum’s exhibits more effectively, we signed up for one of their excellent guided tours. Our group was split into two and each tour was conducted by the museum’s own experienced guides and the service included explaining complicated science and principles behind the exhibits and assisting our campers to operate the various exhibits on three floors.

The tour definitely helped to make science a lot simpler to learn and fun to understand with their explanation and professional guidance. The kids found it extremely fun to see their shadow frozen onto a wall as well as having a great time at the Optical Illusion exhibit whereby different structures and images gives a false perception of things. This was indeed a wonderful collection of amazing eye-popping illusions, which “fooled” and challenge our common perceptions and gave the campers a different insight into one of sciences greatest mysteries – how we think and perceive things and objects!

This museum definitely had enough variety to suit visitors of all ages and interests and our visit turn out to be very educational as well as fun. The campers definitely got to enrich their science knowledge not only through operating funny, interactive and educational exhibits, but we hope that it would perhaps arouse some keen interest amongst our young scientists of tomorrow!!
