Congratulations to our STEMM Challenge Competition winners!

The world is full of amazing molecules. Some that you taste and smell every day, others that make you better when you are feeling ill. From simple water molecules all around us to more complex structures like Aspirin, molecules are all around us. Which molecule do you find amazing? Is there a chemical that you think should have superhero status?

“Invisible Words”

Marty Jopson

Take a journey from everyday life, down into the realm of microscopical wonders with Marty Jopson, the BBC One Show’s resident scientist. The adventure begins with things you can almost see but soon you will find yourself in a world totally invisible to the unaided eye. Marty will take you from the very beginnings of microscopy, through hugely magnified insects, bacteria and plants to the most up to date fluorescent techniques demonstrated live on the stage. A show not just full of stunning images, but interactive demonstrations and samples harvested from the audience. You have been warned! This show is supported by Zeiss, global leaders in the manufacture of microscopes.

Invisible Words

A show by Marty Jopson for adults, families, children (7+), school groups (KS2+)

Kids having fun watching an experiment at a science centre

Science Boxes

Engaging and educational Science Box projects that you can do at home or in school with your class. These practical hands-on activities used in Primary schools across the region are safely designed, specifically for the children to carry out themselves. Now modified for home-schooling, each contains simple guidance for parents and carers, so you don’t need to be a scientist to have fun and support your child with these. Check out the taster below and then sign up to receive the virtual Science Boxes.

Have fun and complete the experiments in our Science Boxes as part of the Junior Youth STEMM award programme.

Electrifying Flight
Rolls Royce

Things have been flying around for ages. That’s how we go on our holidays far away and even eat some fruits that come from the tropical Amazon Rainforest! But now our planet needs us to electrify our aeroplanes, so that they are less dirty and smelly for the environment. Join us to learn how things fly and how we can make your paper planes go further and faster by electrifying them. Let’s make planes cleaner and greener for the future of Earth.

Universilly Challenged with Berliner and Watt

Our anarcho-nerd interactive gameshow has moved online. We would have been having a ton of fun live, but something pandemicy got in the way. Well, you can’t cancel the internet. All you need to play along is a solid web connection. At home you can play as a team or as an individual- we have the technology. Most rounds are pun based. We are sorry about that.

Biographies
