STEAM festival: James Brindley Academy School
James Brindley Academy School is hosting a Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics (STEAM) end-of-term festival on our Children’s site. From Monday 17 July through to Wednesday 19 July, there will be a series of interactive activities which our patients can do for free at the school. All the activities have a local connection to STEAM development from across the county.
The festival is open to all of our children's hospital patients. Please feel free to pop along if you are at the hospital during the festival so that you can learn about STEAM and have some fun. Activities will also be available for patients who aren’t able to come down to James Brindley School.
