New Welsh resources

Welsh government funding means CREST awards are currently free in Wales, and to celebrate, we have just launched a brand new resource.

Sustainable Solutions is a new CREST Discovery activity that challenges students to work as a team to create a start-up business tackling the issues of climate change in their community, through the creation of an app, an invention or a communications campaign.

The resources below provides teachers with a step-by-step guide to running a Discovery Day and is suitable to run with one class, a science club, or with a whole year group.

Get started today!

You can download all the teacher and student documents from the CREST Awards site. Resources are bilingual and available in both English and Welsh.
