We’re teaming up with Science Fuse to bring you an exciting, one-of-a-kind storytelling session titled: Incredible Women in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics). Join us on this roller coaster ride of learning science in an immersive and fun way and celebrate the lives & work of women who have made brilliant contributions to the world of science. In this engaging storytelling session, we will delve into the life and adventures of Jane Goodall, the renowned primatologist, in "Jane of the Jungle." This captivating tale explores Jane's groundbreaking work with chimpanzees in the forests of Tanzania, her passion for wildlife conservation, and her inspiring journey to becoming one of the most influential figures in science.
