Adapt and Change: Celebrate British Science Week 2025 with Wild Science
This year's Science Week theme, "Adapt and Change," provides a perfect opportunity to see how these concepts are realised in animal kingdoms and scientific experimentation.
Furthermore, this theme is relevant in a world that is always changing, and adapting is key to survival and progress.
Wild Science, a famous company that brings animal and science experiment workshops to schools, nurseries, care homes, parties, and other events, is an excellent platform to illustrate these concepts in action.
Adaptations in the Animal Kingdom
Nature is full of outstanding examples of adaptation and change. Over millions of years, animals have developed incredible ways to adapt to their environment.
The theme of British Science Week 2025, “Change and Adapt,” is particularly relevant to the environment and the impact of human activity on the planet.
Here are some of the engaging topics Wild Science might cover in their Animal Adaptation Workshops:
- Camouflage and Mimicry: How animals like chameleons and stick insects use camouflage to hide from predators or become better predators.
- Habitat Specialisation: Looking at polar bears and desert-dwelling animals, we can see how specific adaptations help them survive in extreme temperatures.
- Behavioural Adaptations: Discover how migratory birds and hibernating mammals change their behaviour to cope with seasonal changes. Furthermore, it explains how these species survive in changing environments or climates.
- Evolutionary Changes: Fascinating discussions on how species like the finches of the Galápagos Islands have changed over generations to adapt to available resources.

Scientific Adaptations and Changes Experimentation
Adapting and changing are not just animal stories but also a core principle of scientific progress.
Wild Science can conduct experiments that highlight this theme about many fascinating topics:
- Chemical Reactions and Change: Experiments of how substances change to form new materials, showing the principles of transformation and adaptation to new states.
- Changes of States of Matter: Experiments demonstrating the changes between states of matter. These transformations include melting (solid to liquid), evaporation (liquid to gas), condensation (gas to liquid), deposition (gas to solid), and sublimation (solid to gas).
- Electric Circuits and Change: Conduct simple experiments that show how electricity flows, adapts, and changes direction using switches, which teaches fundamental energy concepts.
- Acid-Alkali Reactions: Explore how different substances react and change properties through acid-base reactions, which provides a basic understanding of chemistry.

What is British Science Week?
Science Week 2025 will take place from March 7 to March 16. The official theme of British Science Week 2025 is 'Change and Adapt.'
British Science Week (sometimes National Science Week) is a ten-day celebration of science, technology, engineering, and maths (STEM) across the UK. Organised by the British Science Association, it’s an opportunity to spark curiosity and develop skills in STEM for everyone.
The beauty of British Science Week is that anyone can run an event—on any topic, for any audience, in any venue. This means we get a fabulous mix of activities—from school workshops and community group projects to public lectures and interactive exhibits.
Whether you’re a scientist or just curious, there’s something for you to enjoy and learn.
Final Thoughts
Adaptation is more important than ever in a world where change is the only constant. Wild Science's workshops perfectly bring the Science Week theme "Adapt and Change" to life.
With animal demonstrations and hands-on scientific experiments, participants will better understand the dynamic processes that shape our world.
Whether you are a budding scientist or animal lover, these sessions during National Science Week will inspire you to appreciate how life on Earth continuously adapts and innovates.
As you can imagine, Science Week is a very popular time for us at Wild Science. To avoid disappointment, please do not delay.
