Teignmouth Science Festival

Young and not so young science enthusiasts crowded into Teignmouth's Carlton Theatre to experience a day of experimentation and demonstrations on show to spark an interest in science and it's relevance to us all in everyday life. Pupils from local primary schools submitted entries for the Earth Art competition with lots of hands-on experience to interest everyone. The highlight of the day was TV Science presenter Adam Hart-Davis leading his audience through a journey around the Earth and the Universe with a talk entitled Frontiers of Cosmology. The event concluded with the premier of a song cycle by local composer David Haines about the universe of magnitudes entitled Powers of Ten sung by Communty Choirs from Teignmouth and Ivybridge. Plenty to think about there!
