We invite you and your school group to visit BODIES…The Exhibition and discover how to enlighten, inform and inspire your students to learn about the human body. By understanding how the body works, you can better care for it and keep it healthy. By studying the systems of the body, you will come away with a new appreciation for life.
In BODIES…The Exhibition, students will see real human bodies dissected and preserved to show the intricacies of each system of the body. Students will also see the effect that disease and unhealthy life choices have on the body – what happens to the lungs, for example, when people smoke. Students will also see how positively amazing the body is – how the pulleys, fulcrums and levers we know as muscles, joints and bones let us function continuously without even thinking about it.
BODIES…The Exhibition provides an unprecedented opportunity for learning human anatomy, health, and biology. You and your students will learn to speak with ease about the body, dispelling some preconceived ideas and fears and creating a forum for frank, open discussion.
