Our talented workshop demonstrators are experienced in teaching science in Primary School and Early Childhood Learning settings. Some are qualified teachers, others are trained scientists with expertise in a variety of areas. All are wonderful with children, are skilled at leading hands-on science workshops, have had thorough background checks and hold current working with children cards.
