🎉 Exciting news! Our latest Miss Molecule & Friends episode is almost here, launching in early 2025! 🎬

This fun, inspiring, and engaging animation comes with lesson plans and resources that schools can use to bring the subject to life. But that's not all! Schools can also book a visit from an industry expert, giving students a chance to ask questions and dive deeper into the topic.

From termite farts and cow poo-powered tractors to rockets and satellites tracking methane emissions, this film covers it all! 🚜🚀

Help us spread the word! We’d love for our followers, friends, and colleagues to share this far and wide so we can reach as many schools and teachers as possible with this fantastic opportunity! 🙌

If your school would like to book a visit in the new year, please email us at [email protected]. Let’s make this year an educational adventure! 🌍✨

Meet The Team:
Lucy is a geologist who has been working in the UK’s geothermal sector for the past ten years. She was the Lead Site Geologist for the United Downs Deep Geothermal Power project and Eden Geothermal in Cornwall. Alongside her technical role, she developed a passion for communicating groundbreaking technologies to all ages in the renewable arena. This included designing and delivering the education programme for the United Downs Deep Geothermal Power project alongside her colleague and “Miss Molecule and Friends” Outreach coordinator Suzie Doe.

It was an ordinary day when her love of hot rocks and surfing combined, and the concept of Miss Molecule was borne, a character that can champion the excellent work done by many to save the planet and mitigate climate change. Lucy is excited to see who Miss Molecule meets in the future and how many young minds she can inspire along the way!

Meet the team:
Suzie has a background in teaching and learning, gaining her Secondary PGCE through the SCITT programme in 2008. She taught Design Technology in local schools until 2013, when she decided to gain a bit of industry experience. Suzie joined GeoScience in 2013 and worked as a graphics administrator for a few years before joining the team on the United Downs Deep Geothermal Power Project. During the three years working on the UDDGP project, Suzie designed, developed and delivered the outreach and education programs where Miss Molecule was originally created. Since 2020, Suzie has worked on several projects with companies providing STEM education, such as Eden Geothermal, Cornwall School Mining Games and the Cornwall Sustainable Buildings Trust. Suzie will use her knowledge and contacts from Cornish schools to arrange workshops, develop educational materials to accompany the animation and help promote digital resources to all the schools in Cornwall and beyond.
