National Science & Engineering Week activity pack series

Free packs full of science and engineering hands-on activities and projects are produced each year for National Science & Engineering Week, and are available to download all year round.

  • Over 300 easy-to-run activities suitable for at home or school.
  • Activities are curriculum-linked with teachers/organiser notes.
  • Our activity packs are designed to be carried out at minimal cost using items you would find in your average school or educational establishment (or even from your kitchen cupboard).
  • For the kids they will be hands-on, fun, and we hope will have a wow factor!
  • Each activity pack is themed.
  • Those with this flag welsh next to them are provided in both Welsh and English.
