Top of the Bench Competition

The Top of the Bench competition is a Royal Society of Chemistry competition aimed at pupils in Years 9 to 11. It is a team competition, which starts with an online quiz, and the final was held just before Christmas at KEGS, with a practical section as well as buzzer rounds. Chigwell made the finals and in the end came third, meaning we did not make it to the national rounds this year. Nonetheless, this is an amazing achievement and in particular challenges the Year 9 and 10 pupils as they have not yet completed the chemistry course. Our team consisted of Johan, Rithun, Harry and Mishal.
