Science Rap Video Competition
We're very excited and delighted to welcome a new regional science video competition to our ever-growing SciCast family! Yes, that's right! Hands on Science have started their Science Rap Video Competition for young people between ages 7-16 from the South East of Wales, and we were at their launch event.
The event was fantastic. Laura Roberts, the Hands on Science coordinator, had prepared a morning filled with inspiration and fun: playing videos from previous SciCast entries and having two amazing and talented artists - science rapper Jon Chase and science singer Jonny Berliner - performing live.
The competition, funded by the National HE STEM Programme with sponsorship from the Science Photo Library, in conjunction with SciCast, challenges young people from South East of Wales and ages 7-16 to write a rap or song about Physics and record a 2½ minute video of them performing it. These entries can also be submitted to SciCast and take on a national recognition.
Big thanks to Laura and her team at Hands on Science, and to all the schools that came to the event or are planning to take part in this fun and creative challenge.
We wish them the best of luck and hope to be able to share all the videos with you at this year's SciCast Awards.
