Our Field Trips

  • The Pacific National Exhibition, in partnership with the University of British Columbia is proud to announce the 4th annual B.C’s Brightest Minds Competition at Playland. The competition will feature two person teams of physics students from across British Columbia competing in a one-day event. Each team will be given a series of physics problems, as set of tools required to complete the problems and access to Playland Amusement Park on May 4th, 2010. The winning team wins a $3000 scholarship.
  • Playland presents Amusement Park Science & Physics, an enrichment experience designed to enhance your student’s knowledge and understanding, and to demonstrate how the Science & Physics they learn in the classroom applies to the world around them. Since 1988, over 100,000 students from BC have experienced Science of Fun and Science & Physics Days at Playland. Students can learn about the acceleration on the Roller Coaster and the G-force on the Hellevator. A curriculum guide is provided with grade appropriate experiments developed by Jim Wiese, author of Amusement Park Science, and hosted by Playland.
