British Science Week 2026 was launched by our Science Ambassadors this week. We were reminded of our subject saint, St Albert the Great and how he a great role model for all our young scientists. He was very curious about the world, and even predicted Polar Bears before they were actually discovered!
This year’s theme is Curiosity! What questions do you ask everyday about the world around you?
British Science Week Poster Competition
The UK government are thinking about how to build a positive future for children. They are keen to understand children and young people’s own ideas on this, so they are asking: What are children and young people’s visions for a good/positive childhood? For more details see the website www.britishscienceweek.org/plan-your-activities/poster-competition
If you enter, there are some science prizes to be won in school, as well as the opportunity to have your poster published in a government report and win an online prize!
Science Gadget Shop
A big thank-you to the science ambassadors who have been fantastic in helping to run the Gadget shop during their lunch time. It has been extremely busy, and we quickly sold out of some items! It will continue to run next week up until Thursday!
