PARENTS can try their hands at IT and science during a new interactive style open evening taking place at Purbeck School in Wareham.

The event takes place on October 24, from 5.30pm to 9pm, and school leaders have lined up a series of science displays, drama activities and much more for parents to experience.

Deputy headteacher Karen Godsall said: "The open evening is for prospective students and parents who want to come and see us in action."
