Science Fair
Science Fair triumph for our Senior Scientists
T
he much-loved and anticipated Science Fair continued to shine last year with over twenty Year 7 and 8 pupils taking part. The Science Fair has always been incredibly well supported, with fabulous presentations, wonderfully wacky ideas and confident demonstrations; this year being no different with an outstanding calibre of work produced by our talented pupils. The overall winner this year was Emily Martin, for her amazing entry on the circulatory system. Emily spent time measuring her heart rate after different activities in different climates. Emily found that the higher the temperature she exercised in, the higher her heart rate reached at a quicker speed. Emily analysed her results brilliantly and showed how exercise has a positive effect on our heart. Prizes in each year group were: Year 7 3rd place: Nate Child-Villiers - Carbon Footprint 2nd place: Henry Maynard - Wind Turbines 1st place: Emily Martin - Circulatory System Year 8 3rd place: Max Warby/Kryštof Soukup - Carne - Steam Engine 2nd place: Jack Mott - Ocean Pollution 1st place: Charlie Beddis - All About Sugar The science department would like to thank all of the pupils and parents for their support with the Science Fair again this year. It continues to be a great opportunity for the children to showcase their passion and enjoyment for science, and we look forward to extending this next year.
