On Thursday 29th June, SI Western-Super-Mare organized their 9th ‘Skirting Science’, this time at Churchill academy and Sixth From. There were 16 workshops addressing various aspects of science and the event was attended by 194 year 9 girls from 12 area schools. The aim was to attract them to science subjects at GCSE. Each participant attended three workshops.
The event was supported by 25 volunteers from four Soroptimist Clubs (Western-Super-Mare, Bristol, Bath and Bridgwater [now Associates]). The Federation President, Ann Hodgson, attended the entire event.
