If you like maths and science, it’s a great place to start!  It isn’t about having your nose stuck in a textbook, it’s more about looking at what’s happening in the world around you.  You don’t have to go far to find that maths and science are everywhere.

Many people think of maths as adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing – well it is, but it’s also the algebra that NASA uses to plot a rocket's path to Mars, the trigonometry surveyors use to plan the location of a new road, or the geometry calculations that help you make that free throw while playing basketball with your friends.

Science is about how things work, the exploration of natural causes to explain natural phenomena. It’s all about opening your eyes.
