She’s Gott It! are delighted to announce our recent appointment to deliver 2 annual Science festivals in 2010 and 2011.
 

The event (Brainwave 10) on behalf of County Durham Development Company, forms part of their plans to ensure NETPark is a focus to build partnerships between the community, education, and business to increase entrepreneurship and innovation in County Durham.

Drawing inspiration from the successful Science Live at NETPark events, this event will host over 300, primarily KS 3, children over 2 school days with a public day  to encourage additional attendance.  This event forms part of the NETPark community engagement programme.

The event will run: Thursday 15th, Friday 16th & Saturday 17th July 2010, it will host a science circus, speed dating careers event and Royal Institution of Great Britain’s Summer lecture.  The Science circus will be run throughout the day by professional scientists and will comprise of short workshops that challenge and inspire children, young people and their families in the locality.  The Speed dating will provide opportunities for interactions with representatives from a variety of careers available in science, engineering and technology from business angel to lab technician.  The focus will be on what they do, and the career paths which have taken them to their current position.  The Royal Institution of Great Britain has previously provided NETPark events along the lines of their famous Christmas Lectures.  Just like the Christmas lectures these will be filmed and broadcast on the Institution’s website creating profile for NETPark and the North East on a national stage.

She’s Gott It! delivered a series of Science Live events at NETPark in 2005/6/7 and are absolutely thrilled to be involved in such an exciting and innovative project.
