Scientists Live at the Excel

On Monday 9 October, 12 of our Year 5 and 6 pupils went across to the Excel Exhibition Centre for the dedicated Schools Day of New Scientist Live. New Scientist Live organised a brilliant programme of talks. Mr Gay, Miss Rider and our super scientists learnt and experienced a range of STEM skills, including the surprising maths of Pokémon to the incredible engineering behind racing cars. The show offered a unique opportunity for students to extend their learning beyond the classroom and bring the world of STEM to life. Our pupils had the opportunity to get hands-on with the technology of the future, and hear from inspiring leading-edge researchers about their work in STEM.

Everyone returned to school smiling and talking about the amazing science they had learnt!
