Science Week
21st March 2017
Melbourn’s Science Week for students has got off to a fiery start!
The annual week gives staff and students the opportunity to explore and investigate outside of their usual curriculum with Year 7 looking at fizzing, Year 8 focussing on energy and Year 9 attempting to land a lunar module!
During lunchtimes KS4 students are set mind-bending challenges while those in KS3 have the opportunity to watch some demonstrations on combustion, as well as having a go at dissections. Dr Wilson is also running assemblies on current adolescent neuroscience.
The event is part of a larger project called ‘British Science Week 2017’ and gives the students the opportunity to enter a national science competition.
Acting Head of Science Cat Rich said: “We feel it extremely important that our own students are involved in this.”
