STEAM Club

Calling all 11-16 year olds! Join us for our hands-on monthly STEAM Club and enjoy a creative twist on your STEM subjects using authentic materials to explore the skills behind mining.

Sunday 20 October: Earthworm Survey

Join us as we complete the citizen science survey Earthworm Watch in association with the Earthworm Society of Britain. It’s well known that earthworms increase soil fertility and carbon storage by mixing in dead plant material. Yet, data about earthworms is severely lacking.

Sunday 17 November: Circuits and Communication

Discover how miners communicated underground before the use of telephones. Design and build creative electric circuits using conductive and insulating dough.

(Please note children must be accompanied by an adult – adults do not need to book)
