Science Safety

6

Year 7 have completed their unit on Science Safety and, on Monday, were asked to show their learning by analysing a fictitious set up in one of the laboratories.

Bob and Bertie had been working on some experiments, in a not very suitable manner, and were showing some very unsafe practices.

Students acted as safety officers to point out as many issues as they could find and then write a letter, with recommendations, to help Bob and Bertie to act as better scientists in the future.

It was great to see students interacting with excitement and showing excellent problem-solving skills.
