Our Open Day Scientists

Pupils from throughout the school were keen to demonstrate their scientific skills and knowledge during Saturday’s Open Morning through a series of experiments: Gabriella was extracting DNA from peas, strawberries and kiwi fruit; Lucy was testing indigestion remedies to see which was the most effective at neutralising acid; Freddie and Isobel were dissecting the heart and lungs of a sheep and Charlie had a great time observing many features of creatures under a microscope, his favourite being the fruit fly. Our younger visitors on the day were very keen to get some gloves on and get stuck into the dissection, whilst parents looked on and were fascinated by Mrs Roberts’ explanation of the anatomy. Thank you to the budding young scientists who helped demonstrate the Science labs on the day.
