British Science Week

Published: 14 Mar '25

We have been celebrating British Science Week in school this week, where this year's theme is 'Change & Adapt'.


Mr. Ridley started the week with an assembly looking at examples of change and adaptions before introducing a competition that children would be taking part in: If You Were an Engineer, What Would You Do?


Each class took part in an online interview with an engineer to learn more about their job and what it means to be an engineer. We learned some fascinating information about the skills required - who knew that playing Minecraft could support a career in engineering?!


Children then spent some time thinking about problems that people face in today's world, and what inventions could be designed to solve these problems. There were some fantastic ideas, some of which can be seen in the pictures opposite, and hopefully some of our pupils will be selected as competition winners and have their inventions built by a team of engineers...watch this space!
