Information on the Day and your feedback

Keele held our first Community day on 23^rd June 2012 as part of our 50th anniversary celebrations. We threw open the doors and encouraged visitors to join us for a fun-packed day for all the family.

What our visitors thought:

“We brought our primary school aged children and visited the sports centre and medical school. The children had the opportunity to hold a Barn Owl, learn how to play golf, trampoline, go-kart, put the siren on a police car, dress up as firefighters, see the models of the human body and palpate an abdomen to feel a baby in the uterus on a model, learn about resuscitation, see slides of bacteria as well as learn about healthy eating and how to burn calories. There were a broad range of activities and opportunities on offer as demonstrated above which held our interest and increased our knowledge and skills.”

“I enjoyed the planetarium - very informative and something a bit different. My daughter (5 years) enjoyed the bouncy castle / lego / molecular models and the shuttle bus!!”

“We enjoyed the variety of things to do. We spent 2 hours alone in the medical school. we enjoyed the walk around the uni. Our kids enjoyed the medical school, the animal skulls and the trampolining the best. It was nice that activities were free.”

“We found the whole day to be enjoyable, because it was educational, informative and fun for adults and children alike.”

“The Community Day was very enjoyable, we'll come again if another is put on. The students and staff were very accommodating, friendly, helpful and enthusiastic.”

“We would definitely like another day. There was so much to do we did not have the time to do everything we would have liked. It's a great way to visit the University and find out what you do.”
