NASA Space School

A group of St Ninian’s pupils participated in the latest Space School programme organised and run by the University of Strathclyde which comprised a week long residential summer school with an eclectic mix of lectures, labs and workshops all on a space theme, delivered by leading academics and researchers, and supported by NASA astronauts and engineers.

The top 10 students are then selected for a 7-day Learning Journey to Johnson Space Centre in Houston in October. We are delighted to announce that two of our new S6 pupils – Francesca Capaldi (6a4) and Erika Singh (6a2) have been selected from the hundreds of students that attended the initial programme to attend the Houston programme. Very well done Girls! In your case the sky is NOT the limit!!
