SCHOOL HOLIDAYS

July 2023 School Holidays at Stardome 

Tuesdays and Thursdays 10am–3.30pm 

Brain Play sessions 

Brain Play specialises in introducing kiwi kids to a range of STEM-focused creative technologies in a fun and supportive environment.

For these special sessions, after each planetarium film, Brain Play will be taking over our Space Room to run a series of activities using 3D design software. Kids will get the chance to design their own rocket, Martian base, entire planet or whatever else they can imagine!

No prior experience is necessary - and kids can carry on their creations at home with the free software they'll use on the day. Stardome + Brain Play sessions are strictly limited due to capacity. Bookings essential!
Total duration of planetarium show + Brain Play session is 90 minutes.

Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays 10am-4pm

Regular Stardome shows

Our 360° planetarium shows are running weekdays, rain or shine, to give you an out-of-this-world experience these holidays.
Each show is followed by a science demonstration or, weather permitting, an outdoor rocket launching!
