Science Club

Science Club has returned on a Thursday afternoon for Year 8s and the students have definitely enjoyed themselves. They have made their own salt crystal Christmas decorations and had fun competing to see how big they could grow gummy bears. They have made their own rain clouds in a jar and lava lamp also. Year 13 students also had fun helping out with Science Club and were even able to have their own investigations as well while helping others.

20 Year 10 Pupils are currently working towards their Crest Bronze awards for STEM research. They are carrying out a range of research on topics varying from fingerprint analysis, study techniques, and placebo effect.

8E recently attended W5 for a Royal Institute lecture on energy “We have the power”. They thoroughly enjoyed the day.

Some of our year 14 Biologists recently attended a zoom talk on inspirational role models which was organised by ALMAC.
