STEM/Science Nights for families

Hands On Science can organise fun, scientific and educational family STEM/Science nights at your school. These nights give parents and other members of your school community an insight into primary school science, and allow teachers to observe a number of experiments that can be used in their classrooms.

A variety of activities are planned for each room.
On the night, Hands On Science will provide two staff to set up equipment for all rooms, brief teachers, oversee activities whilst sessions are in progress, and pack up.
