I Wish Lab22 Had Been Around When I Was at school. 

Based in the offices of PE Limited in Guildford, Matias and Sabrina Seijo have created a wonderful learning environment for junior school children which provides a hands on introduction to science. They encourage children to observe, question and hypothesise and then help them develop skills that are applicable in various areas of life not just science.

In primary Schools, due to class sizes, space and time pressures and sometimes the inexperience of teachers, science is often not taught in a constructive or stimulating way and therefore young children do not become curious or aware of the possible future directions a love of science could take them. Lab22 provides a space for school children to come and learn about different aspects of science through hands on experiments wearing lab coats and then they are given further experiments to take away with them. PE Limited very generously cover all costs including transportation of the two hourly sessions.

Matias and Sabrina are looking to expand the number of participating schools and their concept is something which hopefully could be scalable in the future to enable many more young children to creatively explore the magic of science.
