About Year 7…
Year 7’s contribution to the success of Science Fair 2021 has been immense.
All students have been working on a variety of individual projects. The students made the initial choice of either undertaking an engineering design project or a scientific inquiry based investigation.
Year 7 has successfully investigated Physics, Chemistry and Biology related topics; such as the relationship between mass and velocity on inclined planes, temperature and viscosity, how plant growth is affected by ground coffee and if bath bombs can be made with alternative ingredients.
As is the nature of project based learning, students have had to showcase real-time dynamic problem-solving skills and reflect consistently on the effectiveness of their ideas and procedures throughout the course of this years Science Fair. It has been an invaluable learning experience that they have all excelled in.

“Preparing a science fair project is an excellent example of what education experts call active learning or inquiry…
It is a very effective instructional method; indeed, it is recommended as a cornerstone of successful science teaching.”

What our educators say
Paul Clifton
I absolutely loved the variety of experiments that the Key Stage 3 students conducted, all of which were incredibly interesting. The detail in the write up was also very impressive. Well done Key Stage 3!
Cristina Ortiz-Zurita
It has been absolutely amazing to see our KS3 students so engaged in their Science projects, their originality and the amazing outcomes of them all. It will be no easy task to choose a winner, as they all deserve the first prize.
Suzie Lee
The range of experiments are highly impressive and we thoroughly enjoyed the visual experience and aspect of interacting with the experiments themselves. The wonderful investigations have galvanized the pupils and teachers in Key Stage 1 to begin our own scientific enquiry journeys!
