Mrs Gillespie's year 7 classes have been learning how to use the microscope in science.
The first picture, by Raquel shows the cells of a red-onion. The second by Evan shows the tiny holes on a leaf surface that allow gases in and out of the leaf. Da Iawn - great pictures!
Fantastic open evening last Thursday! It was great to see so many potential students and as always we're super proud of our current students work and support for the evening! Great opportunity to see what we offer in Science! 👩🔬👨🔬🔬🥼

This lively show brought the subject of forces to life through a series of volunteer-led experiments, investigating a range of topics including Newton's laws, gravity, friction and pressure. Big thanks to David & Emyr
Look at the incredible work that 7JA did about the Science behind the King's Coronation. Armed with only a tablet, they produced these magnificent works of Science!
