Curiosity in Action
Read what young explorers have said after attending a Merry Scientist show.
From James:
Fabulous afternoon! Adults who never lost their wonder at space will love an afternoon with The Merry Scientist - a fun, informative way to learn more about the stars, planets, moons and the universe. Meri really knows her stuff and uses fun practical examples to illustrate the way the universe works. The planetarium is fully immersive as you zoom around the solar system and beyond.
Feels wrong to limit a review to five stars after you’ve been shown billions!
From Narraweena OSHC
It was so wonderful to have you join us and the children enjoyed it so much. The educators said they were all so curious and eager to learn, to quote "they loved it!".
Sometimes it is a bit of a juggle to find something that is suited to the entire group but your session kept everyone engaged, they couldn't wait to tell their parents all about it.
We would definitely love to have you back soon!
From Greenwich Scouts
Meri was absolutely amazing! She was incredibly knowledgeable and brought so much energy and passion to the planetarium show. She answered every question the Cubs threw at her with such enthusiasm and patience that they could have happily spent the entire session just asking questions!
The planetarium dome was fantastic and transported us into a completely different world. It felt like we were sitting beneath a beautiful night sky, surrounded by the stars, while being safely indoors. Meri’s detailed knowledge of the cosmos made the experience even more magical as she took us on an incredible journey through our universe.
We feel incredibly lucky to have had the opportunity to experience this wonderful show. The Cubs were completely captivated, and it was wonderful to see their curiosity and excitement throughout the session. We would absolutely love to have Meri back again to share more of her knowledge.
From Nicola:
I wanted to say how amazing Meri was with the children. She adapted the show where needed and kept the kids engaged from start to finish.
The experience was highly interactive, and the children absolutely loved being involved in the hands-on experiments and activities. Their excitement and enthusiasm throughout the session were wonderful to see.
From Jacky:
We had a visit from The Merry Scientist at our Guide Units (7-10yo & 11-14yo). The Guides were visibly excited to explore all the experiments and remained engaged throughout the 75min visit. What surprised me most was Meri's ability to bring complex particle theory into accessible language and practical descriptions. An educational experience that makes learning memorable and fun.
From Alishja:
The kids absolutely loved it! Meredith had them completely engaged from start to finish with hands-on experiments, curious questions answered, and lots of 'wow' moments. They were still talking about the science days later. It was the perfect mix of fun and learning
