Thanks to @NI_RDP and @STEMHubNI for todays session for our Key Stage 5 biologists on the work of the Rare disease partnership and career pathways for them.

Just discovered the fantastic podcast #30animals that made us smarter. It's brilliant. Exploring how scientists and engineers look to animals to improve the world we live in. They take one animal and explain biomimicry and how we use their adaptations in our lives #bbcsounds

The angled sunbeam is a butterfly

Its larvae have a pair of sclerotized cylinders at the back end of its body, containing tentacle organs

When threatened, it unsheathes this structure with a “brush” its end that it whirls... to startle a predator

@jennifermcclun4 @KateJones_teach @Inner_Drive What a day for the school internet to go down 😱

Year 10 biologists comparing the effectiveness of hand sanitisers today… the conclusion: 70% alcohol based sanitiser removed all visible bacteria; non-alcohol based sanitiser removed very little!

[BHS Biology @bhs_biodept]

A super day with some of our Year 10 scientists today - they had the chance to complete an aircraft design workshop with @SmallpeiceTrust and gain a CREST award! So great to get to do practical science again @ballyclarehigh @CRESTawards

Some Year 9 pupils got to have a VR Space experience this afternoon- what a super way to finish the week! Thanks to @STEMHubNI and our @ballyclarehigh STEM ambassadors for all their help. @sen_bhs
