Just wanted to let you know that today’s ‘Little science big fun’ show with was amazing! The children were so engaged and the way Russell shared a variety of scientific concepts was great.

Many thanks for bringing such a high calibre show to St Vincent’s yesterday. Imogen was so knowledgeable and teachers spoke highly of her use of scientific language throughout the presentation. Truly appreciate the opportunity we were given. Lina – Principal.

I just wanted to send some feedback. We have now had our entire school participate in a virtual incursion by the company. Each one was absolutely fantastic and a highlight for the students. I wanted to give a special mention to Ben, he is such a fantastic and engaging presenter and I think he may now have a Middle Park PS fan club!
