Hi everyone,  

We are super excited at Bishopton this week as it is British Science week. We have some very special visitors coming in all week to talk to us about how they work in STEM careers. We also have a Science Afternoon planned on Friday to celebrate the theme of this year’s Science Week, which is Growth. You can find the activity packs here: Homepage – British Science Week 

There is also a poster competition running for British Science Week. You can find the details here Poster competition – British Science Week.

If you would like to enter the competition, your job is to design a poster featuring the theme Growth. This can be anything to do with growth that you can think of. Once you have completed your poster, please make sure your name and class are on the back and hand to your teacher.  Please have your poster in to school by the 25th March. Once we have all the entries, the Biodiversity Eco group will pick the 5 posters that they feel represent the theme most. These will be submitted for judging. The judges will be looking for:

• Creativity in approach – Innovative angle on the content or creative interpretation of the theme
• Content – Clear, accurate and informative about a STEM topic
• Effective communication – presented and communicated in an engaging way

If you do anything science related at home, it would be great if you could take some pictures and send them in to your teacher. We would love to see what you have been getting up to. Have a great week boys and girls and I hope you enjoy all our exciting science activities.
