Science Week
We had a wonderful Science Day on the 10th March 2020 which took place right across the school from Reception to Year 6. There were lots of fun activities. This year we had parents and friends of the school come in to share their STEM professions with the children. There were some fascinating jobs ranging from Biochemists, Microbiologists, Stem cell transplantation researcher and even a Mclaren Engineer. Thank you to all of them for giving up their time, the children and staff thoroughly enjoyed it.
