With only two months to go, preparations for the eleventh Festival of Science and Engineering are in full swing. We blogged at the end of last year with the great news that the festival was going ahead following a contribution of £10,000 from CBSbutler to SATRO, the charity behind it…

And ever since, we have been busy working alongside SATRO to publicise and organise the event. So with two months until the big day, we want to let you know what we will be doing and how to get involved. The festival aims to offer school teams the best possible opportunity to show the high quality of their science and engineering projects to guests from education, industry, commerce and professional bodies. The only criteria is that projects must have been devised and built during the current school year and come from Year 9 science clubs, GCSE, GNVQ, Diploma, AS, A2 or other areas of work.

There will also be plenty of opportunity for the pupils to get involved with some experiments in the Working World Marquee. Here are a few of the companies that will be exhibiting:

  • Army Recruitment with a ‘Bridge Building’ theme
  • Modern Water Plc with a ‘Water experiments  with surprising results’ theme
  • Air Products with a ‘Liquid nitrogen’ theme.

Stay tuned for the next update when we will be revealing some of the other businesses taking part this year. And if you are a school wanting to take part – it’s all free –click here for more details.

We hold a fireworks party each year at our head office in Redhill for our employees and their families. This year’s party was a great success – the food was tasty, the atmosphere was brilliant and the fireworks certainly went off with a bang!

We have organised a number of successful events throughout the years, which have received some great feedback from staff – we have been to the races, sailed on the Solent and had a private film screening in Soho.
