The latest information about cutting edge Physics, examination and revision tips, news about competitions, trips and events at Oldham Hulme Grammar Schools.
Well done to our Year 12 Physics students who are graduating as Gold Industrial Cadets today. Thanks for all the support and coaching from the team @DiodesInc
Some very creative problem solving by year 7 this week in their Paper Towers Project. A different kind of reading challenge @HulmeEnglish! #DistanceLearning#STEM
Some interesting facts and challenges in The Daily STEM. This week's issue #34 has info about Mt Everest, electric trucks, planes, drones that deliver blood to hospitals in Rwanda, and puzzles to solve. https://t.co/bWHJtd0BXT
The 'Night Skies - pandemic and beyond' project looks like a fantastic way to bring people across the globe together: united under one night sky. Can we get some pictures from the Hulme community in there...? https://t.co/aSzkanTwjV
Another great challenge here from the @NPL. It actually covers aspects from the Year 12 Physics course in a way that any year group can engage with! I hope you all have enough toilet roll! #distancelearning
Latest #distancelearning Physics video is ready. Yes, I really have used holes in my own house walls to let us see different types of home insulation! #physicsiseverywhere https://t.co/4qejrv5K30
Do sports balls lose their bounce after A night in the freezer? Discover the findings from your #MeasurementAtHome experiments here:
Thanks for taking part, join us for the next challenge on Monday!

This is an interesting looking results table! Investigating bounce height before and after putting the balls in the freezer overnight! Anyone can get involved in these great challenges from the @NPL#Measurementathome
Ever wondered about the Physics of a cheese roll?! Well, in this chapter of his own potential Physics book Frankie takes us through the changes in energy stores during a cheese's adventures! #physicsiseverywhere#creativethinking https://t.co/3ItnCSjm0G
It's great to see our students combining their Physics knowledge with creativity and critical thinking to explain everything around them. What are the changes in energy stores when dropping a highlighter pen? #distancelearning https://t.co/WkTBxggny5
Thanks again to those of you who joined us for #TimTalksSpace yesterday - and thanks to Dr Anna Hogg and her fascinating insights into monitoring climate change.
You can watch it again here: https://t.co/64rUmtlpT2
Exploring how temperature affects bounciness. Our results table is ready for some experimental data. I think I've got enough space in the freezer for that football... #distancelearning#MeasurementAtHome#physicsiseverywhere
My event at @CheltSciFest will be broadcast this Sunday at 11am. Since it was pre-recorded, it means I will also be available to answer all your physics questions live in the YouTube chat section during the broadcast. See you there.

More Physics in the garden today. This video covers everything you need to know about the Gravitational Potential Energy store. It also enables us to calculate the speed of falling objects, like me at the end of a slide... #physics#gcse#distancelearning https://t.co/wWND4PZfcP
How much energy is in the kinetic store of a football when you kick it? Here is a great example from RG of Physics calculations taking place outside in the sunshine! #physicsiseverywhere#distancelearning https://t.co/jCSb5rvoMV
Hope you are ready for the new half term. We've been busy making you some new distance learning resources: starting with Kinetic Energy Revision. Looking forward to seeing what you create... #physics#distancelearning https://t.co/SJT22ypv3I
