Physics Highlights
It ’ s been another busy term for physics pupils full of challenge and enjoyment . We welcomed our new S3 classes back in June and they got going with their investigations into waves under the banner “ Waves are Amazing ”. Senior phase pupils have been engaging in their N5 , H and AH study and are progressing well on their journey with positive early tracking evidence . Supported study is up and running with senior pupils already developing healthy study habits . In the wider world of STEM , S1 pupils have been developing their communication , teamwork and numeracy skills to design and build model rollercoasters , and a group of keen pupils took part in the National Spaceport competition . Our S2 aspiring Young STEM Leaders have been busy researching and trying out activities that they can lead and inspire other pupils with . The Wakelet above shows some of our top Tweets of the term .
We are delighted to announce that the following S1 pupils have been selected as Reading Ambassadors : Brooke Saunders , Holly Neil , Finlay Crichton , Isla McKeating , Skye Ward , Daniel Power and Claudia Stark .
In addition , we also have Nyah Davidson as Chair , Leo Henderson as Events Coordinator and Nathan Duffy as Resources Manager .
