Thank you to Laura for being an amazing Workshop host. Our children have gained an incredible insight into electricity. The head and our Science Lead came in to see the children, and every child in my class was able to articulate so many facts about electricity. Laura has a lovely, calm aura and her workshops were so engaging and informative. The confidence she has given the children is awe-inspiring. Thank you for making such a lovely experience possible.
Although via zoom, the children were engaged and thoroughly enjoyed the experiments that their teacher could do alongside the Workshop Leader. They enjoyed making their rockets and seeing the rockets blast off!
Excellent! The level of engagement from the children, Joe's subject knowledge, and his interactions with the children were brilliant.
Informative, efficient and the children and staff thoroughly enjoyed the sessions! Children were all engaged and had an exciting experience that they will remember for a long time!

We LOVED our hands on science day. Our workshop leader was really engaging and lead the workshops really well. It was an amazing learning experience for the children and will be so memorable for them. We have had parents and governors comment on this positive experience for the children and we would definitely do this again. Our workshop leader really went above and beyond to provide the very best experience for all of our children so we would like to say a special Thankyou to him for that. Overall a fantastic day!

St Peters School children remembered us when we paid them another visit this year Their teachers loved us too. "We really enjoyed the workshops and it got the Bernie seal of approval (our Headmistress) which is no small feat! I’m sure we will use your company again next year", Luke, St Peters CofE Primary School, Yeovil

Juliet really wowed the children at Oasis Ryeland - Landing on Mars and Dissecting Hearts.
The workshops were fab. The year 5 mars lander workshop was very hands on and allowed the children to problem solve. It’s very topical and contextual, considering the probe landed on Mars yesterday. The year 6 classes both really enjoyed the heart workshop and we now have many children who are looking to go into medicine as a career. Thank you to Juliet- she was very resourceful and engaging.

Broad Oak Community Primary feedback. "The session was great. Adam was really engaging and passionate about science. He kept the children on task and active. I was really impressed with his knowledge and enthusiasm". Adam is our champion workshop leader for the North of England.
We ran a whole day of Kitten Rescue workshops, where the children used fair testing and a whole range of practical experiments to help their "kitten" survive the elements. "We have really enjoyed the sessions, they really enrich our childrens' learning. We look forward to having you in again." Wheelers Lane Primary, Kings Heath, Birmingham
Hi Emma We had a fantastic morning with your Hands on Science Boxes again. Our children invite an adult to join them for the morning as they move round the three workshops and it is always so well received. The children love working with a parent and the parents love seeing what we do in school. Your boxes are always so organised and well put together. The boxes are ready but not cable tied yet, so I will do this today. They are then ready for you. Thank you again, we will be in touch next year. Kind regards Kerri at Brookham School
Sam from Scott Wilkie Primary School loved our Healthy Bodies and Skeletons. "My year 1 team said that the day was brilliant. The children loved it. We will most certainly keep you in mind for future bookings." Hurrah and well done Deirdre for great Healthy Bodies and Skeletons workshops.
Hello Mark Thank you both again, the workshop was great and the children learned so much !! Labelling the heart in the afternoon was a piece of cake after such a fantastic introduction!!! Yes definitely add me to the mailing list and also out science leader. Thanks again, hope you are well Harvinder
"I would just like to take the opportunity to say how fantastic Juliet was during the week visit to Germany. She was without doubt outstanding in supporting the events and contributed to a hugely successful visit where we provided a STEM Day to 399 students in Germany. Please pass on my sincere thanks to her. I know it was a long week away with lots of miles travelled and back to back events but it was an absolute pleasure to work with her and I look forward to doing so again in the future." Praise does not get higher than that for our workshop leaders. Well done Juliet!

Squadron Leader Paul H
You came to visit us last year and delivered your heart dissection workshops for our Y6 children. We are interested in booking this workshop again as it was such a memorable experience for the children Tanya
More praise for STEMBOXES "Loving the Science boxes so far, the children are really engaged and some very thoughtful responses have been offered."
