I VISITED Mersey Gateway Exhibition in Catalyst Centre in Widnes. This should be a must see exhibition for any children who have an interest in engineering as they can see fantastic videos of a massive range of the operations to build a major river crossing.

It is unlikely they would see anything similar in their lifetime and could also steer them into a worthwhile career by getting in on the ground floor and setting their stall out for future development. There are excellent guides to explain everything in laymans terms. Within the Catalyst building there is a fantastic exhibition explaining everything about chemicals, their use etc- again very interesting for children to understand why such things are important.
