Understanding Healthcare Science Week in EYFS & KS1
Let's discover the amazing science that helps us stay healthy! 🧑🔬🩺 Healthcare Science Week is an annual, UK-wide celebration that promotes and raises awareness of the incredible work done by healthcare science professionals. Organised by NHS England, it typically takes place in March. This special week aims to showcase the diverse range of scientific roles within healthcare, from laboratory scientists who diagnose diseases by looking at samples, to clinical scientists who develop new treatments, medicines, and technologies that keep us well. It's all about inspiring the next generation to be curious about how science helps people.
For early years settings, nurseries, preschools, childminders, and Year 1 and Year 2 classrooms, this week provides a fantastic and tangible theme for exploring health and hygiene, the human body, medicine, problem-solving, understanding the world (science and people who help us), and personal, social & emotional development (PSED). It's about introducing children to the wonders of how science and caring professionals work together to keep us healthy, reducing anxiety about visiting healthcare settings, and inspiring an early interest in science. This week offers wonderful planning ideas and inspiration for engaging activities that truly resonate with young minds, making learning about health and science both essential and fascinating.
Why Is Learning About Healthcare Science Important for Young Children?
Integrating Healthcare Science Week into your practice with young children (aged 0-7) helps develop an early understanding of health, promoting well-being, and demystifying healthcare environments.
Promotes Health & Hygiene: Teaches children about the importance of good health practices and the people who help us stay well.
Reduces Anxiety: Familiarises children with healthcare settings (like doctors and dentists) and the professionals who work there, making future visits less daunting.
Introduces Science Concepts: Provides a real-world context for early scientific concepts related to the human body, health, and how things work.
Fosters Empathy: Encourages children to think about caring for themselves and others when they are poorly.
Inspires Future Learning: Sparks curiosity about science and healthcare, potentially inspiring future interests and career paths.
Understanding the Body: Helps children learn about their own bodies and how they function.
Engaging Healthcare Science Activities for EYFS & KS1 (0-7 Year Olds)
Let's put on our lab coats and explore how science helps us feel better for Healthcare Science Week with these planning ideas and activities perfect for EYFS and KS1 children. The focus is on understanding health, the human body, and the amazing work of healthcare scientists and professionals! Many of these early years and year 1 activities can be supported by our extensive 'Health', 'Medicine', 'The Human Body', and 'Science' resources.
Here's some inspiration for celebrating healthcare science in your setting: (Please use your own discretion and knowledge of your children to ensure appropriateness of each activity and safety concerning any materials given and activity undertaken.)
Role Play: Doctor's Surgery & Hospital: Set up a 'Doctor's Surgery' or 'Hospital' role-play area. Use our 'Doctor's Surgery Role-Play Pack', 'Medical Word Mat', and 'Medical Word Cards' to support authentic play. Children can act as doctors, nurses, or patients.
Poorly Teddy Clinic: Have children bring in a 'poorly' teddy or toy. Use our 'Poorly Teddy’ resources to help them identify ailments. Encourage them to write 'Get Well Soon Cards' for their toys.
X-Ray Investigations: Introduce the concept of X-rays (how doctors can see inside us without cutting us open!). Use 'X-Ray Multimats' for drawing or building 'bones'.
Exploring the Human Body (Simplified Science): Discuss basic body parts and how they work. Use our 'The Human Body' resources.
Dental Health Focus: Set up a 'Dentist's Surgery' role-play. Use 'Dentist Dramatic Role-Play Pack', 'Dentist Word Cards', 'Dentist Word Mat'. Emphasise good oral hygiene with 'Brush Your Teeth Morning And Night Poster', and 'Dentist Teeth Posters'.
Eye Health Exploration: Discuss how eye doctors (optometrists) help us see clearly. Use 'Eye Health - Glasses - 2-Piece Puzzles', 'Eye Health - 'Keep Your Eyes Healthy!' Poster', 'Eye Health - Word Cards', 'Eye Health - Word Mat', and our 'Optometrist Dramatic Role-Play Pack'.
Healing & Caring: Talk about what happens 'When I Got Hurt' or 'When I Was Ill'. Use these specific sheets to encourage reflection and discussion.
Medical Themed Literacy & Numeracy:
Alphabet/Phonics: Use 'Plaster Alphabet Display Cards', 'Plaster Alphabet Colouring Cards', and 'Ambulance Letters And Sounds Game - Phase 2 & 3 Phonics'.
Counting: Practice counting with 'Plaster Counting Puzzles (1-10)'.
Colour Matching: 'Colour Match Medicine Bottles' is a fun matching game.
Critical Thinking about Health: Engage children in problem-solving scenarios related to health with 'What Happened To Teddy? - Critical Thinking'.
Healthy Choices: Connect to healthy eating (see our 'Food' pages) and exercise (see our 'Exercise' page).
Explore More: Please visit our ‘Medicine’, ‘The Human Body’, ‘Exercise’, ‘Handwashing & Hygiene’, ‘Eye Health’, ‘Teeth & Oral Health’, ‘Food’ (Fruit & Vegetables plus Balanced Diet), ‘Mental Health’, ‘Sun Safety’, or ‘Science’ pages to explore our extensive catalogue of Health resources!
These activities offer great inspiration for making Healthcare Science Week a memorable and impactful experience in your early years and Key Stage One setting, fostering health awareness, scientific curiosity, empathy for healthcare professionals, and an understanding of how science helps us stay well.

Why not set up an invitation to play using these ‘Plaster Counting Puzzles’?
Select those appropriate for your children (1-10 available) and allow them to match the number with the corresponding number of plasters. Each pair has a different way of connecting as a puzzle for the children to match and so even if they haven’t learnt what the number looks like yet, but are beginning to say the numbers in order, this can be a fun way to introduce them to new challenges.
Once the puzzles are complete, why not line the numbers up in order and count together? If your children would enjoy a further challenge, leave out a number and see if they can spot which one is missing from the sequence.
Puzzles could also be used as a fine motor control/counting activity if left uncut. Children could be given an appropriate number for their learning and encouraged to place objects on the plasters, counting as they go.
In addition, each number is also written as a word. For our youngest children, this adds to learning about text in the environment and how it has meaning. Our oldest children may start to recognise the words and associate them with the numbers. This will be beneficial for when they begin to read and write these words in subsequent years as they will have something to build on.

Set of 20 cards (10 colours). Use appropriate number of cards for your children in an invitation to play or adult led activity.
These cards may be used in a number of ways. Placed facing up on a table, children can simply match up the pairs placing them next to each other or alternatively, they may want to collect them as they go.
A further challenge could be a memory and turn taking game of ‘Picking up Pairs’. The cards are made with a tab which can be folded before lamination in order to strengthen the final product. This also means that when turned over, the pattern on the front can not be seen.
