Year 12 and 13 pupils recently took part in a workshop on spectroscopy and astrophysics, led by representatives from Queen’s University Belfast.

The session gave pupils the opportunity to explore how scientists use light to investigate stars, galaxies and the wider universe, while gaining an insight into the study of astrophysics at university level.

A brilliant opportunity to bring classroom science to life and hear directly from experts in the field.

This week, we have been celebrating European Day of Languages with a variety of events.
Past pupils Hannah and Megan returned to school to take assemblies and share their experiences of studying languages at university and abroad.

On Monday, our Year 14 Language Ambassadors prepared an outdoor Food Fest, where Year 8 pupils sampled foods from France, Germany and Spain, and on Tuesday some of our own pupils took over the classroom and gave taster sessions on a variety of languages, from Hindi, to Urdu, Polish to Portuguese.
