Welcome to the Helium Zone!

From 7 March – 1 April 2022, give your students the opportunity to get curious, gain confidence, and see science at work outside of the classroom, in the Helium Zone.

Students can see STEM as something ‘for them’ by connecting with working scientists in instant messaging-style Chats, and asking follow-up questions!

The Helium Zone is a general science and engineering themed zone funded by STFC.

Students: Read the scientists’ profiles, Ask questions, Chat, and Vote for your favourite to win £500! Don’t have a username? Ask your teacher!

Teachers: Find out more and sign up >

The Helium Zone is part of I’m a Scientist, Get me out of here.
