2J took part in the Salter’s Chemistry Festival Challenge which was based on the Science of the Caramel Wafer. The pupils tried experiments looking at what makes the perfect caramel wafer such as the bubbles in the biscuit, the strength of the biscuit and the thickness. After the experiments were over 2J presented their experimental reports in any way they chose. All pupils were awarded caramel wafers donated
Our cluster primaries alongside our Science department took part in a joint STEM activities session delivered by Dr Kirsty Ross from Optima. The event allowed the staff to become more familiar with light experiments and use practical activities to engage pupils in learning and enthusiasm within Science.
Senior pupils took part in a day dedicated to careers. The ‘Rock Assembly’ event was hosted online by Talent Foundry who provided us with speakers from various industries. Pupils were able to learn about careers within the NHS, financial sector, science and apprenticeships. Throughout the day there were a few interactive sessions were pupils were able to take part in activities such as learning how to code their own game
