Ellie Harrison from BBC One's prime time 'The One Show' was in Pembrokeshire on Tuesday to take part in the Darwin Centre's 'Science Aglow' event at the Merlin Theatre. What brings a TV celebrity down west for a day with children from Pembrokeshire schools? Well, the Darwin Centre run a project that offers free field trips and workshops to all schools in Pembrokeshire, and a lucky few get to bring their investigative science projects to the 'Science Aglow' event, to be assessed for awards from the British Association for the Advancement of Science (The BA). Each school has the chance to swap the classroom for the beautiful outdoors of our county, and study topics like climate change, river sampling, and rocky shore creatures. The field work is followed up by an in-class workshop linked to the field trip and the national curriculum. Schools then have the opportunity to develop science investigations for the assessment. Tenby school's project on light and sound passed the strict guidelines with flying colours and they will receive their awards from Glamorgan University's School of Applied Sciences. The field trips, workshops and the event are part of the PEASAT Project, which is generously sponsored by Dragon LNG, Waterston. Without such sponsorship, Darwin would not be able to offer such a comprehensive package to schools or bring celebrity guests to inspire our primary school children. Ellie is the third in a line of TV celebrities to be present at the Darwin Centre, joining Nick Baker (The Really Wild Show) and Monty Halls (Great Ocean Adventures). At the event, local environmental organisations run workshops for the pupils to learn about the importance of sustainability to Pembrokeshire, Wales and the world. This year's event was attended by the Marine Conservation Society, Keep Wales Tidy, Silent World Aquarium, West Wales Eco Centre and Pembrokeshire Marine SAC. Tenby pupil Jemima Childs was lucky enough to get on stage in front of pupils from Tenby, Milford Haven Juniors, Lamphey and Broad Haven schools and take part in an experiment as part of Ellie's presentation. Ellie said after the event: "Science Aglow at the Darwin Centre is a unique event, bringing young people together with the brains and passion of local experts. It gets young people enthused about science early, making the whole subject feel accessible, and that makes all the difference in the world." Project co-ordinator Marten Lewis would like to thank Ellie, all of the schools, the workshop leaders and Dragon LNG for making such a great day possible.
