IDL Crime Scene Investigation Event
S1 pupils had a fantastic time at the recent IDL Crime Scene Investigation Event. They learned about forensic science through practical experience of carrying out tests and experiments. They worked as a team and used their problem solving skills to determine the key suspect in a crime.
The finale of the event was putting the suspect on trial – pupils were excellent and very enthusiastic during this role play. All the staff involved were very impressed with the skills and talents of our S1 Pupils. Well done S1!
