We had our \u2018Washing Line of Time\u2019 which displayed a variety of events from Cardiff\u2019s history; visitors were encouraged to add their own events to the timeline, and we had additions from Ed Sheeran\u2019s 2022 concert in the Principality Stadium to the founding of the NHS in 1948. Finally, visitors had great fun dressing up as a Roman soldier or a scientist and catapulting our very own medieval castle!<\/p>\n<p>We had a great time at the festival and would like to thank the organisers of the event. A big thank you also to our volunteers for their enthusiasm and doing an excellent job!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The 18th to 22nd February was the week of Cardiff Science Festival and the SHARE with Schools team were delighted to be invited to take part.
