It linked in really well with our Science topic!

It linked in really well with our Science topic and helped children link their learning to a wider range of topics.

STEM to STEAM

In an increasingly robotised world, the need for human creativity, humanity and positive multidisciplinary collaborations has rarely felt more important. The role that the arts play, including in connecting people with science, technology, engineering and maths is essential. I look forward to visiting the Festival of Tomorrow, discovering & exploring developments. I congratulate Rod Hebden and the team in bringing this Festival to life.

100% success!

The main reason we came was to show our children how interesting and entertaining science can be. The event succeeded 100% in doing this.

So many young female scientists!

It was amazing to see so many young female scientists .Every person we spoke to had lots of time for my children (6, 5 and 2), spoke to them and they left inspired and wanting to be scientists.
