I did engineering workshops with F2 students last week as part of their castles project. Today I received these two beautiful thank you cards from the classes I worked with. They have such lovely messages inside. So, so lovely to get these! #STEMambassador #inspireanengineer ๐Ÿ‘ท๐Ÿป

Iโ€™m really looking forward to the event Iโ€™m heading to on Thursday. 60 4 and 5 year olds will be doing workshops with me throughout the day for their castles topic. Donโ€™t get to do many groups this young and I think itโ€™s going to be a blast! #inspiringthefuture #civilengineering

This evening weโ€™ve been picking strawberries and raspberries in the garden and eating them in the sunshine. Lots of rhubarb picked too and looks like the cherries will be ready soon. Anyone else growing fruit this year? ๐Ÿ“๐Ÿ’

A local charity that mean a lot to me put out a request for an engineer with CAD experience to help them with their new support centre. Started this week on the measuring to make them the floor plans for them. A very different project for me to volunteer on for a little while!

Ending @30DaysWild with this busy little bee ๐Ÿ Weโ€™ve really enjoyed noticing nature a bit more this month. Highlights were feeding the foxes and hedgehog, seeing a bat in the garden and seeing the videos of baby birds hatching. #30dayswild
