At Skill Supply we are passionate about developing the engineers and scientists of the future.

Utilising our breadth of experience in all aspects of science, technology, engineering, maths and education,

we’ve created a series of unique programmes which bring together core STEM skills, the latest technology and

our unique, engaging and memorable approach to education.

Air Power Science - Air-powered vehicles

Science

On this exciting educational day, 30 of your

students get hands-on experience of

making their own air-powered vehicles and

working out what forces are involved.

Working as part of a team, students  take

measurements and analyse their data.  Test

their vehicles to see which will go the fastest or

longest and how they can make them work

better.  Discover what we can learn from

scientists that have gone before us.
