“It's only going to inspire me and the Sublime Science team to do even more to allow children to discover how awesome science can be"

About Sublime Science

Making sweets and slime as science experiments from the Beaches of Sydney right through to the Australian Bush (in a pickup truck no less!) was the 'slightly' unusual inspiration for Sublime Science! After 'Mad Marc' (Wileman) had been a Professional Science Communicator (maker of slime & launcher of rockets!) across the UK, Canada and Australia & been a 'real' teacher in a school in Nottingham... inspiration struck. Why not pick out all the best, most fun, most exciting science experiments learnt over the years, all over the world, and put them all together...Sublime Science was born! Marc has produced stage shows at the National Science Museum, been featured in the BBC, ITV & Telegraph, published a 5 star reviewed book - 'Don't Eat Your Slime' and has even received congratulatory praise from No. 10 Downing Street.
