Frequently Asked Questions

Where are Little Scientists Club courses held?

All of our courses are held at: St. Anne's and St. Andrew's, 125 Salusbury Road, London, NW6 6RG.



Do you offer children's parties?

Absolutely! We would love to make your child's birthday party extra special and unique. We offer a range of hands-on and all-inclusive party packages. If you would like to find out more information about our party packages or make a booking, please drop us an email!



How do I decide which course is right for my child?

The entry level for your child is entirely up to you.

The design and content of all our courses is based on the Early Years Foundation Stage and the Key Stage 1 curriculum. As such, all courses are perfect for children aged between 3 and 6.

From our perspective, we suggest the decision is based on the level of exposure your child has already had to science, rather than their age. For example, if your child has attended science courses previously, then you may decide to jump straight into the intermediate course.

On the other hand, if your child has not had much exposure to science in the past, we would recommend starting with the beginner course.

Again, the choice is yours. We would be delighted to welcome your child to either course. Further details of our courses, including dates and location can be found on our courses page.



Do you offer discount for siblings?

Yes! We offer a £25 discount for a sibling. This discount applies to any of our courses, even if siblings are on different courses. Examples:

  • Two siblings enrolled on our Beginner course would be (£170 x 2) - £25 = £315
  • Three siblings, one of which is enrolled on our Intermediate course and the other two on our Beginner course would be ((£185) + (£170 x 2)) - (£25 x 2) = £475.
To redeem:
  • As part of the enrolment process you will be asked to declare whether you are enrolling a second child which is a sibling to the first child you have enrolled.
  • Both siblings must be enrolled on Little Scientists Club courses that start and end on the same dates.
  • Please note that all names are checked against our records and any incorrect information may lead to an increase in the amount due by you to Little Scientists Club.

Can parents drop their children off?

Yes! You are more than welcome to drop you children off at the start of each sessions and pick them up at the end of each session. All parents are required to complete a security information form prior to dropping their children off for the first time. This form will capture the information we require to ensure we have security and safeguarding procedures in place for your child. You are also more than welcome to sit in and watch your child have a blast and learn lots about science! The choice is yours!



Can parents stay in the sessions?

Yes! Parents are more than welcome to sit in and watch their children have a blast and learn lots about science. Parents are also more than welcome to wonder off for a coffee and collect their children at the end of each session.



Can I enrol my child on a course that has already started?

Yes. We would be more than happy to welcome your child to any of our courses, irrespective of whether they have already commenced. However, this will be subject to the number of spaces left in the course you are interested in. Feel free to enrol you child at any time via our Enrol page and we will be in contact with you regarding logistics.



Do you offer science courses for children over the age of 6?

As it stands, our courses are only available for children aged between 3 and 6. However, we are working hard on courses for children over the age of 6. If you are interested in science courses for children over the age of 6 and would like to be kept in the loop about future developments in this space, drop us a line and we will be sure to contact you as soon as we are ready to roll out our new courses.



Do you run any taster sessions?

We believe the best way for your child to get a proper taste of what we offer, is to come along to a full session. As such, we would be more than happy to offer the following to you:

  • Enrol your child on the course you wish to try and pay the full fee of that course
  • See how much your child enjoys their first session
  • If they liked the first session and wish to continue coming, they will be more than welcome to attend the remaining sessions of their course.
  • If, for whatever reason, you or your child are not happy with the course by the end of their first session, we will reimburse you for the remaining sessions of that course (minus a £10 admin fee). 100% guaranteed!
If you would like to proceed on this basis, please enrol your child via our Enrol page and let us know what you/your child think at the end of their first session!
