Science Week

We're trying to organise speakers to come and talk in the primary school I work in for Science Week. If anyone has any suggestions for people I could contact, I'd be very grateful. Unfortunately it's voluntary.

Where are you based Gwen? If there is a University or IT/RCT near you then contact their science faculty/department and you'll be sure to find someone who can come out and speak. You may even be able to organise a field trip to a University science laboratory...

Try making contact with your local County Council, Most have dedicated environmental education officers. A lot of their work would involve school visits for shcemes such as the An Taisce green flag scheme so they are well used to coming out to schools.
