Physics and Astronomy

Tailored days

We can arrange bespoke activity days either at your school or college, or here at the 亚洲情色 Falmer campus with any number of students, and we can mix and match activities to create a full day event tailored specifically to your needs.

See our primary, secondary and a-level activities and talks pages for a full list of options, and we will put together a timetable for your visit.
