Virtual Reality Space Workshops

Back to VR Space Workshops

Our total Space Virtual Reality workshops, in partnership with RedBox VR , offer the best in terms of an all round immersive learning experience.

We have two VR experiences to choose from:

Our Place in Space VR - Travel with us through the Solar System, drift through the Milky Way Galaxy and take wonder at Nebulae; the birthplace of stars or

Blast Off VR - Jump on board a rocket and launch into Space! Experience the sights and sounds as you zoom through our atmosphere and leave the Earth far behind.

VR Workshops last 30 minutes for a maximum of 10 participants in each session, meaning we can usually cater for more than one class in one day. Wearing the high spec Virtual Reality headsets specifically designed for Space Detectives, attendees will enjoy a fully immersive journey into space under expert guidance.

This is guaranteed to be a space science workshop like no other....

Prices will start from £300 for a half day and £450 for a full day and come complete with a Space Passport/Workbook for each participant to take away.

If booking for Brownies, Guides, Scouts etc., please contact us for prices.

"Thank you so much for coming to Sherborne Prep and running all of your inspiring workshops. Everyone has had a fantastic week and the school has been left buzzing!"

Mrs. F Salisbury - Head of Science, Sherborne Prep

"We arranged for Space Detectives to visit our son’s school and show the amazing VR experience to the Year 1 and 2 students. I asked my son if the class enjoyed the sessions, he told me they LOVED IT and then start telling me lots of amazing spaces facts! Great experience and highly recommended"

"I have learned so much more today from this simple activity than I ever learned when I was at school!! "

Adult participant Wells and Mendip Astronomers Open Day

""The Our Place in Space Hands-On Science Workshop was expertly delivered; information was clear and knowledge was built upon as the workshop progressed. The children were entirely engaged through well-thought out demonstrations and interactive activities. Understanding space and the solar system was made accessible to all - even the teachers! This workshop was superb and a must when learning about space!""
