Activities provided for Key Stage 2 pupils are hands-on, colourful and aimed at encouraging a passion for science from an early age.
Science All Around Us
This is an interactive science event for Year 5 & 6 pupils. It includes:
- demonstrations
- exhibitions
- 'hands-on' experiments
- interactive talks
Up to 300 children from local primary and junior schools participate in 'Science All Around Us'. Pupils from years 5 & 6 take part in hands-on experiments, watch demonstrations and listen to talks that highlight the fun of science and some of the important roles that it plays in today's society. The event brings together staff from the Chemistry, Physics and Astronomy, Ocean and Earth Science and Biological Sciences.
The last 'Science All Around Us' day took place 12 July 2012.
