Mother Nature Science Omdömen 

The Science camp was recommended to me by a friend and I was greeted with such a warm welcome by the science teacher that i felt reassured my son was in good hands. On pick up, i was given feedback on how Shakeel got on and was shown all the fun take home activities he created, he particularly enjoyed the session about space and superheroes and can say it was worth every penny!

My daughter sarhay absolutely love MNS camps, she did 3 weeks in summer and now looking forward to October spooky camp.

Beside the great value of her being motivated and engaged in science in a fun and creative way, she came home with nice take home she love showing us and try at home, she also made friends over the summer that we still arrange playdates eventually. We feel in peace as she is having great creative learning time outside school while we work.

Educational with more fun and enjoying activities

We arrived to pick up our daughter from their club and to our surprise, they informed us that she wasn't there. We had to search frantically to find her at another location. The staff member who attended to us that day didn't even help us find her. We will file a formal complaint with Ofsted about this incident, but it's important for other parents to know about their concerning safety practices. A tip to other parents: avoid it.

A lot was promised on the website and very little delivered.

My children, 10 and 8, were given 3 paper creation based activities (we are talking stuff you can download and print at home) for 5-6 year olds and that was about it. They said they spent half the day just sitting there doing nothing.

On the positive side, they did give me a full refund when I brought up their “no quibble refunds for all bookings made” promise on their website.

But they made a remark that “As per our T&Cs we do not normally refund in these cases, however in this instance we have made an immediate refund back on to the card you paid with.”

If the T&Cs are saying something different to the sales copy that’s just another way they are false advertising.

Everything is fine. The environment is safe and they do activities. However camp instructors are not always kid-engaging inclined. The first week my son attended, the main instructor was a PhD student. The second week, it was a science teacher (which went slightly better). My son did not enjoy this camp and I would recommend Ultimate Activity Camp or Little House of Science. They have counsellors that are trained to engage with children.

I also found the administration disrespectful. For example, I overheard a person calling me a busy-body after I complained that the extra 30 minutes that I paid for in the afternoon should be spent playing or colouring and not spent sitting on the sidewalk waiting for the parents to pick the kids up. Fortunately, they allowed the children to play during this time by the second week, although I cancelled the extra wrap around care by that time.
