Last week during lunchtime our fantastic science department hosted National Chemistry Week activities, an initiative run by The Royal Society of Chemistry. Year 7 students enjoyed the hands‑on Rainbow Fizz experiment exploring acidic and chemical reactions and Year 12 tackled Titration Treachery to practice precise measurements and analytical technique.
It was great to see the enthusiasm from the students during this enrichment activity and their passion for chemistry.
Take a look at the results and winners below. A prize will be with you shortly!
