Big Bang Science and Engineering Festival
Tropicana, Weston super Mare
27 & 28 April 2018
This year’s festival was a huge success with over 2500 people attending over the two days and at least 1600 of these were children. There were over 42 exhibitors including the RMS, who's stand featured the school binocular microscopes which were demonstrated by Peter Sainsbury, Owen Green and Marie Kokolski; they attracted a lot of interest from children, teachers and parents.
The RMS donated one of these microscopes as a prize for the competition winning primary school. This was won by Staplegrove Primary School from Taunton.
Big Bang Science and Technology Fair
Leicester Grammar School
25 February 2017
Our Outreach team took one of our Microscope Activity Kits to the Leicester Big Bang event. The stand was busy all day with children using the microscopes to look at a variety of bugs, seeds and packaging, as well as the inevitable makeshift samples of fingers and strands of hair!
