Children and staff enjoyed a fun-filled day of scientific discovery as the Faculty hosted its first 'Bring your child to work day' this week.

Members of the Science Museum outreach team presented a fun side of science as various explosions and reactions captivated the audience, both young and old.

The younger attendees were treated to a magic show and face painting, while the older crowd got stuck into some slime making.

Images from the day are available in the slideshow below.
