It's Children's Mental Health Week and we are encouraging all our Queensbury family to look after themselves and their mental health, which is oh so difficult at the moment. Go to https://t.co/Tg0zr6oOHM for some great ideas on how to do this. #childrensmentalhealthweek #weCARE

[Science@QueensburyAcademy @QBScience]

We have been encouraging students to get out from behind the screens and go and do a bit of birdwatching today, don't forget to submit those results though 🙂🦆🦢🕊️🐓#birdwatching #BigGardenBirdWatch #lessscreentime

Anyone planning to go for a walk this afternoon after lessons are finished? This looks like a lovely project to get involved in locally #community #conservation #environment

[Chalk Cherries and Chairs Team @ChilternsCCC]

If a tree falls in the woods.... You know the saying, but what does a tree really sound like? Why not try recording some sounds of trees in the #Chilterns and submit these to the first sonic map of the @ChilternsAONB ! Learn more at https://t.co/RURinFYcRh

Quick, get over to facebook tomorrow and ask about all the amazing things you can do as a science career 😃💪🧪#careers #STEM @AcareersQb #scienceisthefuture

[National Careers @NationalCareers]

🚨Our careers adviser will be live on Facebook tomorrow to answer your questions on careers, learning and work! #AskNationalCareers

[Science@QueensburyAcademy @QBScience]

@larkriseacademy @ArdleyHill That's fantastic to hear! 🤩

[Science@QueensburyAcademy @QBScience]

If any of our students have younger siblings, the I'm a Scientist chats are a brilliant way to ask all the questions you wanted to ask to real scientists! Parents and carers also welcome 😃 @larkriseacademy @ArdleyHill #Science #WeCare

[Royal Institution (now on Bluesky) @Ri_Science]

Tune in to @imascientist's Planet Earth Zone this week! Experts go live at 2pm every weekday to chat to Primary age students about climate change and Earth science. Our fave recent question – 'why is it rare to find whale poo?' 🐋

We love a bit of #citizenscience and since we all probably need a bit of fresh air away from our screens here's a great one to get involved in. Help the #ObserveATree project gather data (details below) #STEM #Science #Community

[Science@QueensburyAcademy @QBScience]

This is an amazing visual guide to some really amazing scientific research that links in to both GCSE and A-level Biology. Well worth a look! #Biology #STEM #microscopy https://t.co/ILDQkjoJbP

[Science@QueensburyAcademy @QBScience]

Here's a great opportunity for our budding physicists... CERN (home of the Large Hadron Collider) are running virtual talks all about their work. Suitable from age 14 up so even our lower school scientists could give this a go https://t.co/QPjUN5Woga #physics #STEM #learning
