#NWSnlScience #NWSnlRemove Building a balanced diet food pyramid. One or two efforts to overstate the amount of Dairy Milk and Haribo needed but we got there in the end! Looking forward to seeing what the weekend’s food diaries reveal…

#NWSnlScience #NWSnlForm5 The elastic energy store in the catapult transfers via the mechanical pathway to the kinetic energy store in the flying prune. That and also chance to take down the teacher - three direct hits, each one jolly painful. Prunes hurt!

Shell E Bug Hunt: twice rained off, but we caught just enough creepy-crawlies to be worth the wait! #NWSnlScience #NWSnlShell

1965 commemorative Churchill crown coin - what a find! And some excellent autodidacticism and peer-enthusiasm along the way - hurrah! #NWSnlForm3

We had a blast creating these rockets with y8 @BroomwoodUpper students!

Houston, we have liftoff! 🚀🚀🚀

The drizzly weather couldn’t hamper our aerodynamic engineers testing their prototype plastic parachutes in an air resistance investigation this morning. #NWSnlShell #NWSnlScience

#NWSnlForm2 #NWSnlScience Fossilised mosasaur tooth and shark tooth from the late Cretaceous period. Also fine specimens of as-yet unfossilised teeth from the early 21st century period!

We have loved discovering what insects are native to Wandsworth Common. Here, two of the boys have just managed to catch a bug (no bugs were harmed in the making of this investigation). #NWSFollowYourCuriosity #NWSnlScience

This week, Shell have been going on an adventure - bug hunting on Wandsworth Common. Look at these organised boys making some exciting scientific discoveries. #NWSnlScience #NWSCollaboration #NWSFollowYourCuriosity

Boiling water at 50*C in a vacuum chamber: off-syllabus, sure, but an engaging demonstration of the effects of air pressure (or lack thereof) nonetheless! #NSWnlRemove #NWSnlScience
