CREST: Discovery Awards in a Day!
CREST Discovery Awards are aimed at students aged 10-14 and take approximately 5 hours to complete – they’re fantastic for STEM Clubs or a STEM Day!
CREST Discovery Awards offer an introduction to real project work and give students the freedom to run their own investigations in self-managed groups.
See how much fun you can have, take a look at Queen’s Park High School’s amazing projects or our Discovery Day photo galleries!
