Spooky Science Inspires Students

Posted in: News Archive

Students enjoyed a spooky welcome in their science lessons on Tuesday as our Science Department celebrated “Dress as an Undead Scientist” day on 31st October.

Dressed as a favourite scientist, the teachers talked about the life and work of famous important scientists and discussed the many STEM careers available to students who study science beyond GCSE.

As always, our Science Department immerse themselves fully in their chosen characters when the opportunity arises!  See below for an outline of who they are and what they did.
