Finalists in the School Science Prize!
Very well done to Oscar in 9N and
Chloe in 7I who have both reached the
(virtual) final of the Science and
Technology Facilities Council (STFC)
School Science Prize.
Students had to write an essay about
‘Why I Love Science’ and clearly Oscar
and Chloe did an amazing job because
they have been selected as finalists,
with a chance to win a mini ipad.
We wish them lots of luck in the final!
