So many young female scientists!

It was amazing to see so many young female scientists .Every person we spoke to had lots of time for my children (6, 5 and 2), spoke to them and they left inspired and wanting to be scientists.

My whole family were entertained. Planned to stay an hour – it’s been 4 and we’re starving!

Amazing day! So blown away by all the staff: the knowledge and resources. My whole family were entertained. Planned to stay an hour – it’s been 4 and we’re starving!  Thank you for a great day. See you next time”

100% success!

The main reason we came was to show our children how interesting and entertaining science can be. The event succeeded 100% in doing this.
