^{Science Museum:}

Friday 14^th June

The year 10’s had a successful trip to the Science museum, confidently navigating their way through the London Underground system to South Kensington,  having visited the Natural History Museum the week before. Their favourite exhibition by far was the  ‘Who am I?’ Interactive gallery, where they spent most their morning exploring how their genetics and upbringing might combine to create their identity in this ‘hands on’ exhibition.

After a spot of lunch the students visited the materials section where they explored the unexpected properties of different materials and were brave enough to cross a narrow bridge across the top of the museum (see picture). A special mention to Jesse, who won the Science challenge I set them and to Hamim, for offering his seat up for an elder member of the public on the way home, even though he was exhausted from his museum experience.
