Our annual Winter Showcase was held on Tuesday 14th November and gave us the opportunity to showcase our talented musicians and singers. A fabulous evening was had by all. Congratulations and thank you to all those who took part and were involved. 

Year 7 students were immersed in an engaging micro-scale Harry Potter-themed potions lesson, delving into the intricacies of displacement reactions. Instead of using conventional iron filings and copper as we would normally, the class embarked on a magical journey using dragon whiskers, monster serum and Elixir of life to enhance their learning experience.

Year 8 students completed the wonderful rainbow fizz- a practical where we use our knowledge of acids, alkalis and the pH scale to create a rainbow of colour. Not only a fun lab practical but also one that can be repeated at home. Science is observable and applicable in any setting, offering opportunities for exploration and experimentation virtually everywhere.
