Science workshops for primary schools in Ireland. Always rooted in real and concrete science and taking their lead from the Northern Ireland Curriculum and Irish Education Curriculum - but taking approaches from the world of the arts - our  Science Workshops for schools in Ireland provide an excellent way of engaging students with science and supporting them in understanding the world (and worlds) around them.

Delivered by practitioners who are passionate about science, these exciting programmes provide an amazing way of promoting science, cementing pupils’ subject knowledge, explaining difficult concepts and introducing new content.

We know how complex delivering whole-school approaches to science can be, so you can now book a Big Science Day for a number of year groups comprising either different workshops exploring a number of topics - or a range of age-differentiated activities on a single scientific theme!

“I have enjoyed working with As Creatives, they did excellent work for me for STEPS Engineers Week. They provided a professional service and were very supportive and helpful. They were incredibly thorough and always quick to respond. I am really satisfied with the fantastic educational resources that they developed including engineering trails, quizzes, and videos. The creativity and quality of the resources far exceeded my expectations, they are engaging and easy to use. I can’t say enough positive things about the experience, I recommend As Creatives and look forward to working with them again.”  Engineers Ireland
