The Electro-Magnetic Engineering Show

The Electro-Magnetic Engineering show cleverly weaves the story of magnetism with that of electricity and covers many important engineering concepts in a way that is appropriate to a primary school audience. This show has been created for the STEPS Programme to introduce students to engineering and in particular electricity and magnetism. These shows are suitable for 5th -6th class and each show runs for an hour. STEPS will be hosting shows at various locations nationwide during the school year. Book events for October through our events page here

This show is offered free to school groups.  The STEPS programme organises shows in different venues across the country throughout the year.
