The Wall

Move, react, race and play your way through science

The Wall brings science, movement and digital play together through interactive games and physical challenges. Step up, get involved and see how quickly curiosity can turn into action.

What you can do here

Take on digital challenges with your whole body

The Wall is an interactive experience that combines physical activity with digital technology. Visitors can race against the clock, follow fast-moving challenges, solve playful tasks and take part in games inspired by subjects from space to nature. It is a great zone for visitors who like active, energetic exhibits. Children can move, react and compete, while families and groups can join in together. Activities may change over time, with new games and challenges added regularly.

Who it's for

Perfect for active explorers

The Wall is especially suited to visitors who enjoy movement, reaction games and hands-on challenges. It works well for:

Families looking for something active to do together

Children who like movement-based play

Older children who enjoy fast-paced challenges

Groups who want shared activities and a bit of friendly competition

Visitors who prefer doing over watching

Learning through play

Science that gets visitors moving

The Wall can help visitors connect science with movement, reaction, problem-solving and digital technology. It shows that STEM is not only something to read or watch: it can be active, physical and full of trial and error. For schools and organised groups, The Wall can support wider conversations around technology, physical activity, digital interaction and how people respond to challenges.
