CSI THE HEIST WORKSHOP
Include up to 72 pupils per day
Based on an incredible true story and reminiscent of a high-stakes detective movie, a vault in a renowned Diamond District was the target of a cunning heist. The culprits were meticulous in their planning but, to a trained eye, they left behind a trail of clues, challenging the sharpest minds to unravel the mystery.
Your students will step into the shoes of forensic experts, finding evidence at the crime scene without contaminating it, dusting and analysing fingerprints with meticulous detail and piecing together the puzzle to find out how the heist of the century was pulled off.
It's a race against time to ensure justice prevails and the masterminds behind the burglary are brought to light. Will every thief be apprehended, or will the plot twist with a clever escape and millions in sparkling loot slipping through the fingers of the law? The answer lies in the hands of those who dare to solve the case.

"Presenters were engaging, helpful and active. Resources excellently organised and distributed/collected in. Large range of different tasks and mixed medias to keep engagement up. All the feedback from the students has been positive. This has inspired them to think differently AND highlight possible jobs they wouldn't normally think of."
