Who and what
is
Sci-Bono?
We have a lot of interaction with Sci-Bono. But what is Sci-Bono then?
Let us look at their website:
“The Sci-Bono Discovery Centre, Southern Africa’s largest science centre,
is affiliated to the Gauteng Department of Education to support
maths, science and technology education and to help build to South
Africa’s science, engineering and technology capacity.”
It is HUGE and it is interactive. Not a museum in any way.
“Sci-Bono annually receives hundreds of thousands of visitors to its
a large collection of interactive science and technology exhibits and
exhibitions. Sci-Bono also offers a broad programme of science and
technology related events, activities and programmes for both the general
public and the school community. Sci-Bono is now one of the most
popular leisure and educational destinations in Gauteng.
Did you know they also do birthday parties (ok 3-12 years – but hey)
“All of the nearly 400 permanent exhibits at Sci-Bono are interactive
and visitors are encouraged to touch, feel, press and play to their hearts
content. The centre also hosts various temporary and travelling local
and international exhibitions such as the Wonders of Rock Art Lascaux
Cave and Africa. In addition, Sci-Bono also has its own mobile exhibits
and exhibitions that visit schools, community centres and other venues
in Gauteng and other provinces”
Why not look at some pictures? And talk to your school about visiting.
It is worth any minute of the day.
