International Women’s Day, Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics Day
Yr5 girls were invited to the International Women’s Day, Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics day (IWD STEM) to raise the aspirations of STEM and engage girls in STEM activities in a fun and exciting way. During the day, the girls had lots of fun experiencing virtual reality and controlling drones to move in a closed cylinder. The girls also participated in a number of workshops that included a workshop led by a doctor who specialises in immunology pathology. It was a very exciting, engaging and important day for girls with an inspiring end to the day with a skype call from a female scientist live from NASA in Washington.
