Pi: For the Kids, By the Kids at Science and Industry Museum, Castlefield 23 October 2018 Entrance is free

The kids are alright. Budding scientists from Abraham Moss Warriors have been busy: building cranes, investigating hydraulics, testing reaction times and guillotining chocolate. Now it’s time to present their findings. Come and be schooled in proper science by kids who’ll prove to you once and for all that when it comes to science, there really is no age limit.
This is a Platform for Investigation (Pi) event, powered by Siemens. Take part in live experiments, chat to scientists and get hands-on
