This summer we get creative with some colour chemistry, learn how to raise caterpillars and butterflies, dissect some owl pellets and learn how to work safely with micro-organisms. There's also details of some free CPD from the Getting Practical programme and some of the more interesting calls to the helpline.

An activity where children can see coloured water stain flower petals.

Guidance on the safety measures you'll need and good recipes to make.
