Girls in STEM - 26 & 27 June 2024
Back by popular demand, the British Motor Museum is proud to announce two special Girls in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths) Careers Days on Wednesday 26 and Thursday 27 June. These fantastic days will feature a whole host of interactive STEM-based activities for girls in years 7 to 10.
Inspire the female scientists and engineers of tomorrow at our exclusive girls-only event which will provide a safe space for girls to meet with industry professionals and inspirational women in the STEM workforce.
The day will begin with an exclusive keynote presentation and Q&A with Louise Reynolds, Director of Procurement at Aston Martin, who will share her story as a woman in STEM and her route into her senior role. On 26 June, students will also have the chance to meet racing driver Eliza Seville, winner of Formula Woman 2022, to discover what it takes to be a successful woman in motorsport. On 27 June, students can meet Vicki Horrey, Senior Programme Manager for Special Projects at Aston Martin, for a peek behind the curtain at the development of the Aston Martin Valour.
Students will also enjoy an interactive women in motoring-themed tour, put their engineering skills to the test with some interactive STEM challenges, take control of remote-controlled Jaguar D-types, master Sphero coding ‘bots with our partners the STEM Ambassadors from MoD Kineton and try their hand at a motorsport pit stop challenge.
To continue their learning back at home or school, students on both days will also have a goody bag containing two STEM activities, including a salt-powered car kit to take away.
The cost is just £12.50 per pupil for a full day at the Museum running from 10am to 2pm. The Museum’s Travel Support Scheme is also available to help cover schools’ transport costs.
