British Science Week

British Science Week 2024

23rd March 2024Catherine Dodds

British Science Week is a ten-day celebration of science, technology, engineering and maths that took place between 8 – 17 March 2024. This year, the theme was ‘TIME‘.

All year groups took part in daily science missions inked to one of the five different methods of scientific enquiry.

  • Research using secondary sources.
  • Comparative and fair testing.
  • Observing over time.
  • Pattern seeking.
  • Identifying, classifying and grouping.

The children joined a daily virtual celebration at the end of the day to see what other schools involved had been up to and to celebrate their achievements of the day. What a great week we all had!
