Science Week 2025

Budding scientists embrace a week of discovery
The week of 10th March was a truly remarkable celebration of British Science Week, with KS3 students participating in a variety of dynamic and thought-provoking activities.
Highlights included a captivating session on animal adaptation, where Year 7 participants explored the intricacies of how species evolve to thrive in their environments. The discussion also delved into the impact of changing habitats and the growing challenges posed by environmental shifts. Year 8 students showcased their creativity and problem-solving skills by constructing footprint tunnels to monitor local wildlife, providing valuable insights into animal behaviour and conservation efforts. Additionally, the importance of Artificial Intelligence in healthcare was explored by Year 9 students, shedding light on how cutting-edge technologies are revolutionising diagnostics, treatment, and patient care.
Julia (year 7) - "We are celebrating British science week, and the topic this year is 'Adapt and Change'. I am working with Zain on matching the adaptions and habitats to the animals. Every animals is adapted to suit its habitat and environment".
Abdi Kareem (year 7) - ''I had heard of the desert fox before but never knew its name. Now, I’ve learned that it’s called the Fennec fox, and its large ears play a crucial role in releasing heat in the scorching desert.''
It's been a wonderful team effort from the Science department!
