Today, our Year 9 students have been investigating acceleration in Physics using our air track and data loggers. 🚀📊

The students have been developing their practical and analytical skills by collecting and interpreting real experimental data to explore how objects accelerate under different conditions.

A huge thank you to the Ogden Trust for their generous donation of this fantastic equipment, which has provided our students with the opportunity to experience hands-on science using industry-standard resources.

Well done to all of our budding physicists for their enthusiasm and excellent work today! 👏🔬

As temperatures rise, we would like to remind our community about the importance of staying safe around water.

We are proud to support the RNLI’s campaign, helping young people understand what to do if they get into trouble in open water.

Remember:
🌊 Don’t panic
🌊 Float on your back
🌊 Keep calm and control your breathing
🌊 Call for help or continue floating until help arrives

Many accidental drownings happen because of cold water shock, even during warm weather. Please help us spread this important message by talking to your child and sharing this post.
