Our Education Officer @FurzeJonny & @BristolChemLabS have been conducting #outreach at #Portishead Primary School, giving their "Gases in the Air" talk to 180 pupils. We've seen some glowing reports from the students! Along w. @ACRG_Bris, we're proud to sponsor such activities.

[RSC Bristol & District Local Section @RSC_Bristol]

Along with this lecture, take a look at the recorded resources @BristolChemLabS have put together on @YouTube. Some great pieces for explaining #chemistry in #teaching and some of the facilities at @BristolChem (Inc. NMR w. @Buttsresearchgp) #NMRchat #outreach #science (1/2)
