Try Sci Trail

If you’re not sure what course to why not get some hands on experience to help you make your decision.

Come and try our “Try Sci Trail” at 12 Quays on Tues 1st and Wed 2nd September from 10 – 12 and 1-3.

No appointment necessary just call in.

The trail is for learners who might be considering a science course or just want to know more about what’s on offer.

You can try out 4 or 5 short fun science investigations using everyday items e.g. lipstick, cabbages, diet coke, supermarket carrier bags and maybe even some mystery remains dredged from the dock at 12 Quays – the menu of activities changes daily.

The trail takes about half an hour to complete and if you complete the trail successfully you will be eligible for a prize draw.

As well as having some fun, you will also have the opportunity to get some individual advice from tutors about studying for a science qualification at 12 Quays.
