Whether you’re new to STEM or looking to deepen your practice, this session will provide valuable insights and resources to support your teaching journey.
Let’s inspire the next generation of thinkers, makers, and doers - starting in your classroom.

​SciencePlay Kids STEM PD/PL for Primary and early secondary educators
17 June 2025​
Aimed at STEM specialists as well as classroom teachers who are incorporating STEM in their classroom from Prep to Year 9. You will explore a range of low-tech materials that you can use to engage all learners in your classroom in more STEM based conversations and investigations.​​​​​​
SciencePlay Kids PD/PL for EARLY YEARS educators
Dates TBC
In this full day workshop aimed to Early years educators, run by a neurodivergent scientist and STEM communicator, Dr. Loz, you will spend MOST of the day DOING all the things (no boring powerpoint presentations) and then take home a show bag of materials so you can take your learnings straight into your centre. We'll also give you access to loads of worksheets and lesson ideas.

SciencePlay Kids PD/PL for a Neurodiverse Classroom
Explore how different brains interact with information/ learning opportunities and how to ensure that all types of learners in your school or centre are able to access these opportunities. We'll delve into what helps ALL brains push learnings into long term memory and then retrieve and apply it when needed. We'll define who neurodivergent learners are, how they might navigate their world and help you recognise these individuals in your room. We'll then fill up your toolbox with lots of ways to accommodate these learners and help them to access ALL the learning opportunities you create.
