Good afternoon,

We hope you have enjoyed the first week of STEM Fortnight. Please see our Twitter feed @Mearns_Primary and school website for information about the activities that classes will experience. Here is this week’s talk topic for you and your families to take part in. There was a real buzz around the school last week as the pupils gathered and shared all of your interesting views and ideas about sustainability. We hope this week you enjoy talking about STEM and STEM Careers.

On Wednesday night we’ll be promoting STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths)  and STEM careers through a STEM Showcase  event held in the school. We would be delighted if you could join us on Wednesday evening from 6.00pm – 7.30pm. Pupils will demonstrate some exciting science that they have been learning in class and leading coding activities and workshops. Come and have a  Virtual Reality headset experience with our new VR headsets, talk to visitors from the local community about their STEM Careers and enjoy a science show with Jon Davies, Think Science.
