On Tuesday 11th February, a team of incredibly talented Sixth Form physicists delivered a fascinating 90 minute presentation to 50 primary school pupils from St Edwards School, William Murdoch Primary School, Oasis Academy Hobmoor and Bordesley Green Primary School. There were a variety of impressive experiments and some excellent scientific explanations from our sixth form students. The primary school pupils particularly enjoyed getting involved in all the practical demonstrations, especially the smoke canons! We even generated so much smoke that, for the first time ever, we activated the school smoke sensors setting off the fire alarm! Many thanks to Miss Platt and her team of A level physicists who led the session: Catherine, Carola, Poppy, Mira, Ami, Khadeeja, Kirsten, Zaynab and Simren.
