This week we have been celebrating British Science Week with a number of activities. The week got off to a great start with an assembly given by Mr Hamid Rabani from scienceentertainer.co.uk. He showed the students the science behind bubbles.
Year 8 spent a day investigating the best way to preserve vitamin C when cooking broccoli and year 7 tried to devise the perfect cake recipe.
Dr De Cillis set up the Van der Graaff generator and we found some interesting things whilst dissecting owl pellets and Mrs Cross showed us what happens when you inflate lungs.
