Physical Science

This interactive workshop (supported by the Institute of Physics) looks at the Physics, such as speed, forces and light and sound, behind four sports activities. The students collate their results which they then utilise, together with the information on the worksheets, to answer a series of tiered questions at the end of the session.

Breathing for Life Challenge

An interactive workshop (supported by GlaxoSmithKline) takes the students through a range of tasks looking at diet, body and energy systems. Additional support material and a PowerPoint presentation is provided for the students to work through a series of related questions at the end of the session. We also provide a follow on lesson worksheet and teachers’ notes.

A flexible interactive workshop which can be tailored to accommodate a range of abilities, even within one session, which provides the students with real life maths problems.  Students are provided with a worksheet, which they are tasked with completing, following a series of hands on ativities.

Fitness Testing

This workshop provides the opportunity for students to assess their fitness levels (in a non-intrusive, fun environment) across a range of areas including: lung function, flexibility, grip strength, leg strength, heart rate and body fat.  A great chance for students to asses their bodies, using a range of different equipment, in a fun but informative way.

Physics in Sport

This one hour interactive lecture looks at a range of topics including reactions, balance, forces, inertia, sound, energy and friction all in the context of different sports.  Members of the audience are invited to help take part in some fun practical experiments to illustrate the theory behind many of the topics.

Key Skills

Interactive workshops covering topics such as teamwork, communication skills, creative thinking and problem solving.  We use highly engaging, thought provoking activities that fully engage pupils by involving them in tasks that require a positive approach.
