Very proud to welcome back a former pupil who now works at @NRServicesUK to deliver a #STEM activity for our pupils. Great for them to see someone who walked our halls becoming successful and having fun in the process!

N3 Science have been sharing their learning in posters for the homologous series.
Off to a great start!

For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.
N5 are exploring Newtons Laws of motion and had this great demo for visualising N3LM.
