Millennium Point has announced a new free event for schools on 23rd June – the SciENGINEERING Showcase. The landmark building will be full of fun shows and interactive workshops showcasing the exciting side of engineering.
School groups from across the West Midlands are invited to book free places. Students will be able to take part in fun activities and enjoy live performances, all themed around engineering. Plus, industry leaders will be appearing to discuss their work and give career advice.
SciENGINEERING is the fourth of Millennium Point’s annual SciSERIES events, developed to showcase the wealth of career opportunities in STEM (science, technology, engineering and maths) industries. Over 3000 children have already enjoyed a free SciSERIES event and this year’s event is expected to be equally popular. The SciSERIES events are part of Millennium Point Trust’s wider aim to support the growth of STEM skills in education, for which it has already invested over £40 million into the region.
Millennium Point CEO, Abbie Vlahakis commented: “Engineering not only provides exciting careers, but also the opportunity to physically improve your local community and maybe even the whole world. The SciENGINEERING Showcase will be fun day out and may even inspire the next prominent aerospace engineer.”
The SciENGINEERING Showcase takes place at Millennium Point on Monday 23rd June and is perfect for school years 5 to 10. If you would like to book free places for your school, or if you would like to promote your company to over 1000 local young people, visit www.millenniumpoint.org.uk to see how you can get involved.
