Hannah,
Thanks for your email - If you've not had a reply from any of the other
directors already, we'll have a chat internally and get back to you
soon, and if you don't hear anything shoot me a reminder message!
I suspect we'd be most easily available for the weekend and the evening
presentations - how much information do you need by the cutoff date over
and above a confirmation?
Thanks,
Hibby

Good morning,
I am writing to enquire about whether or not you would be interested in
participating in TechFest 2016 Science festival.
TechFest is Aberdeen and North-East Scotland's annual festival of
Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths. (STEM) 2015 was the
festival's 22ndt Anniversary and is highly regarded as a key event
within education, industry and the wider community. TechFest aims to
promote engagement with STEM subjects for all ages through a variety of
accessible and entertaining programmes, composed of workshops, shows
and presentations.
The Primary Programme runs for a week and is open to all the primary
schools in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire. It is held at the Gordon
Barracks in Aberdeen and the children come for a day, visiting 2
workshops and a show. It runs from 9am - 3.30 Mon - Fri, your workshop
should be suitable for up to 30 children and be in line with the
experiences and outcomes of the Curriculum for Excellence. The workshop
should last for either 45 or 60 minutes and suitable for P1 - P3, P4 -
P7 or P1 -P7.
The Activity Weekend is open to the general public and has drop in
style workshops held over the Saturday and Sunday in the same
location.
The dates for this year are as follows:
Primary Programme Monday 29th August - Friday 2nd September (set-up
Sunday 28th from 3pm)
Activity Weekend Saturday 3rd and Sunday 4th September (set-up Friday
2nd from 5pm)
If you could let me know as soon as possible if this is something you
would like to be involved with, that would be great. Our deadline for
confirmation is Friday 22nd January.
Alternatively we also run a Public Programme which is a series of
evening talks and presentations and if you feel that you would be
better suited to this then please let me know.
If you need any further details please get in touch.
I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Regards
Hannah
