British Science Week

23rd Mar 2023

Last week we celebrated British Science week and the theme of the week was CONNECTIONS. Nearly all innovations in Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths are built on connections and to highlight this fact our Science department created a quiz which required our students and staff to work out the connections between the answers to seven questions which were hidden across the school site.

See if you can work out the answers and find the hidden connection...
