Hello Carville, we’re NUSTEM. We’re based at Northumbria University, and we work across the region supporting children, families and teachers in exploring science, technology, engineering and maths. We’re particularly keen to help people recognise that careers in these STEM subjects are available to them.
On this page you’ll find a summary of the things we’ve done with your school, and links to follow-up activities you can do at home.
Today Year 3 became geologists and investigated real meteors which are rocks from outer space! To find out more about what a geologist does, click here.
Year 5 found out about different careers available in hospital other than doctors and nurses, and discovered how technology and physics allow us to look inside the human body. To find out more click here.
What a busy day!
The Botanist with Year 2, the Geologist with Year 4, Tumblewings with Year 3 and a Goat on a Boat with Year 1!

Today we took to the great outdoors to test some bubbles. We experimented with different shapes of bubble wand to see if they had any effect on the shape of the bubbles (…they didn’t). We moved on to making giant bubbles and big clusters of bubbles, appreciating their rainbows, reflections and shadows.
For more information and activities to try at home, see our page on Bubbles.
