February 2010

What on Earth is in your garden?

National Science and Engineering Week (NSEW) is now less than a month away and several of our online projects are now live and ready to go! Our flagship venture, the nature-spotting
What on Earth Project, has already had over 100 wildlife photos uploaded and the first entries for our Endanger Ranger’s Competition have now arrived in the office!

We’re all very excited here at NSEW HQ about this year’s Week, and I hope you are too! As well as some great online activities, there’s a plethora of events taking place across the UK. If you haven’t already told us what you’re up to, then its not too late to add your event to the online database.

Now in its 17th year, NSEW 2010 is shaping up to be the biggest yet – it’s never too late to get involved in the nation’s largest celebration of science and engineering.

With kind regards,

Dan Richards
National Science and Engineering Week Officer
