School Testimonials
“I just wanted to email to say a huge thank you for yesterday. The children all really enjoyed their sessions and we had great feedbackfrom the Teachers. It’s given people ideas that we can use in our Science lessons using the outside environment!“
“I just wanted to say a HUGE thank you again, for yet another incredible day! The feedback from the staff and the children has been amazing, as expected, as you are fantastic! The children have thoroughly enjoyed their workshops and lots of staff have come to me and said how much they’ve learnt themselves.“
“Please pass on our thanks to Rosie once again for visiting on Friday. My colleagues have all commented about how much they enjoyed it, which is always great when the teachers feel that they’ve learned new things too! We look forward to welcoming you back in the future!”
“I just wanted to email to say thank you to you and Chris for helping to organise and deliver an amazing Women in STEM day at our school. All of the children and staff have been so positive about the assembly and workshops, and we are very grateful to you for such an engaging day. Many of the children have been able to recall knowledge for the day and it has been brilliant to take part in a day that is full of sharing scientific concepts, rather than just relying on awe and wonder. Lots of the children are keen to share what they have learnt from the day at our science fair next week. I Iook forward to working with you again in the future.“
“We loved the workshops; they were roughly 350 students participating altogether. The workshops were engaging, interesting and very educational!”
“The children really enjoyed and were engaged with the activities. Since the workshops were tailored to each year group, it really helped them to flashback their recent learning, or it was great as a pre-teach. It was a very well thought out and structured workshop. We will definitely try to book in again … a big thank you on behalf of Dovedale Primary School!”
Passionate about science
Delivered by practitioners who are passionate about science, these exciting programmes use age-appropriate, drama-based approaches to cement existing learning, clarify difficult concepts, challenge thinking and introduce new content.
We know how complex delivering whole-school approaches to science can be, so you can now book a Big Science Day for a number of year groups, comprising either different workshops exploring a number of topics – or a range of age-differentiated activities on a single scientific theme!
British Science Week 2026
British Science Week (BSW) is a ten-day programme of science, technology, engineering and maths events and activities across the UK for people of all ages.

Science Assemblies
Assemblies are a great way, of course, of both generating a buzz around school and sowing the seeds for a shared experience, so we’re happy to lead interactive and entertaining whole-school assemblies at the start of a day of any of our science programmes – and all at no extra cost!
