About this Event
This is a girls only event:
Girls Invent Today is a fun and inspiring STEM event created to help girls aged 7–16 explore, create, and believe in what they’re capable of.
Throughout the session, students will partake in hands-on activities that encourage curiosity, teamwork, and creative thinking. They’ll build, experiment, problem-solve, and try new things in a relaxed, supportive environment where it’s okay to make mistakes and learn as you go.
We’re also excited to welcome guest speakers who work in STEM-related fields. They’ll share their stories, talk honestly about their journeys, and offer encouragement to show girls that there’s no single “type” of person who belongs in STEM.
Girls Invent Today is about more than learning skills. It’s about helping girls feel confident, heard, and inspired. Whether a student already loves STEM or is just starting to explore it, they’ll leave feeling proud of what they’ve achieved and excited to keep learning.
What your child will gain:
- Confidence to try new things
Students are encouraged to explore ideas, ask questions, and have a go, without fear of getting it wrong. - Hands-on STEM experience
Practical activities help turn curiosity into understanding, making STEM feel exciting and accessible rather than intimidating. - Problem-solving and teamwork skills
Girls will work through challenges together, learning how to think creatively, collaborate, and persevere. - Inspiration from real role models
Hearing from guest speakers helps students see what’s possible and understand that STEM paths come in many forms.
