Welcome to Science2Life
Scientific Sue has gone VIRTUAL!
Why not follow one of our Science Shows for Schools with a Science2Life ‘Science It!’ workshop?
Along with the virtual shows you can now purchase workshop kits which are supported by online videos for the organisers and a pre workshop show!
As a consequence of the 2020 COVID19 pandemic Sue expanded Science2Life’s outreach into to three new STEAM fields:
- Development and delivery of Virtual Shows, Workshops and Tutorials.
- Opening of an online store offering a range of toys, gadgets and educational activities designed to encourage a positive and creative engagement with Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics – all of which are perfect as gifts, for use for HOME SCHOOLING or fun introductions to the wonderful world of science!
- Creation of a range of iBooks developed to support Science2Life’s Shows, Workshops, Training Session and just for the fun of playing with Science!
Visit our online store and check out the amazing science gifts and educational resources!

What is STEAM and why is it important for our children?
STEAM is an acronym for Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Mathematics. STEAM education uses art, drama and design to bring the STEM subjects to life and make them real and relevant to the world we live in today.
In 2015, as part of NI inaugural Science Festival, Sue was the teacher of the successful Guinness World Records attempt for the Largest Practical Science Lesson
