Our Year 10 & 11 students had an inspiring medical careers experience at the Keir Hardie Academic Centre yesterday.
From suturing & CPR training to hearing from practising doctors, they gained hands-on insight into life in medicine. @BishopHedleyRC
Great practical work from Mr Walsh’s Year 11 class last week. Students carried out an acid���base titration, building confidence with technique, accuracy and data collection in the lab #PracticalScience @BishopHedleyRC
Our KS4 learners were invited to attend a Healthcare Taster Day at the University of South Wales last Wednesday ,giving them a great chance to explore future careers in healthcare. @BishopHedleyRC
Mr Walsh's Year 7 class got hands-on in science this morning, diving into the classic onion cell practical. A first look at the building blocks of life. Some serious microscope skills on display! #FutureScientists#Year7Science@BishopHedleyRC
Last week, Mr Walsh’s Year 7 class dove into chemistry by testing the pH of everyday household substances! Learning acids and bases has never been this fun. #STEM#Year8Science#pHTesting
Yesterday, Miss Bishop’s Year 8 class got hands-on with separation techniques—filtering, evaporating, and carefully extracting pure salt from rock salt! Fantastic practical science in action! #Year7#PracticalScience#STEM@BishopHedleyRC
Our Year 9 students absolutely nailed the 'Murder Tydfil' STEM event at the University of South Wales yesterday! From forensic science to problem-solving, you all showed some serious detective skills! #STEM#MurderTydfil#USW#NextGenScientists@BishopHedleyRC
Miss Bishop’s Year 7s took their parachute investigation to the next level with an egg drop challenge! Testing air resistance and protecting fragile cargo—fantastic problem-solving in action! #Year7#STEM#EggDropChallenge#AirResistance@BishopHedleyRC
Last week, Miss Bishop’s Year 7 class explored air resistance by designing and testing their own parachutes! Fantastic creativity, fair testing, and lots of scientific thinking in action. #Year7#AirResistance#STEM#HandsOnScience@BishopHedleyRC
Last week, Miss Bishop’s Year 8 class put plastics to the test! They investigated the strength of different types in the lab—brilliant hands-on science and sharp conclusions all round! #Year8#MaterialsTesting#STEM@BishopHedleyRC
Fantastic aerodynamic investigations from Miss Bishop’s Year 7 class last week! Excellent teamwork, precise measuring, and lots of scientific thinking in action. #Year7#Aerodynamics#STEM@BishopHedleyRC
Miss Padfield’s Year 9 class became crater investigators this afternoon! They explored how ball bearing impacts affect crater size in sand—real science, real fun! #YoungScientists@BishopHedleyRC
Mr Walsh’s Year 8s were stretching their minds (and springs!) in the lab this morning with the Hooke’s Law experiment. Great to see science in action and some very precise data being collected. #STEM#ScienceInAction#HookesLaw@BishopHedleyRC
Mr Walsh’s Year 7s took to the skies this morning with their paper rocket launches! 🚀 Great fun, impressive designs, and some serious air time. Future engineers in the making! #STEM#ScienceInAction#Year7@BishopHedleyRC
Mr. Walsh’s Year 7 science class explored air resistance this morning in the stickiest way possible—dropping plasticine through wallpaper paste! A messy but brilliant lesson in forces! #ScienceInAction#AirResistance@BishopHedleyRC
Earlier this week, our Year 10 students explored careers in medicine on an exciting trip! From surgery to research, they discovered the many paths into healthcare. A huge thank you to the professionals who shared their expertise! #CareersInMedicine@BishopHedleyRC
Mr. Walsh’s Year 10 class put their practical skills to the test last week with titrations! Precision and accuracy were the name of the game—future chemists in the making! 🔬👏 #HandsOnScience@BishopHedleyRC
