Tinker Fest 2020

Tinker Fest is a bi-annual event organised by Science Centre Singapore. We connect children, parents, educators and makers in a week-long celebration of the joy of learning through play, exploration and experimentation. 

This theme “Flow” explores on the various science concepts related to flow and fluidity; a tribute to the adaptability of humanity in the midst of this global pandemic. 

From gravity to fluid dynamics to melting points; join us in various show-the-science sessions and hands-on activities around Science Centre Singapore! Adhering to social-distancing rules of course. 

25% off for Science Centre members with promo code <SCSMEMDISC> (membership card must be produced on the day of the workshop).
