House Science Competition
On Wednesday 12 March, during British Science Week, students engaged in the House Science Competition 2025. Over 80 students took part from Year 7-13 to complete six experimental and puzzling challenges (plus additional tasks thrown at them by the Sixth Form) – fastest house wins!
Although Davis House finished all of their challenges first, there were additional time credits and penalties to be awarded for winning each extra challenge and completing tasks with no guidance.
Curnock won the paper aeroplane challenge, Evers came first in the paper drop and Davis clinched the estimate task.
With everything accounted for, the final times were as follows…
Davis – 13 minutes and 27 seconds
Curnock – 26 minutes and 53 seconds
Patterson – 26 minutes and 59 seconds
Evers – 29 minutes and 58 seconds
It was great to see all members of all houses from Years 7-11 working together and all students put in an incredible effort. Everyone gains participation points for their house. A shout out to the sixth form volunteers for getting involved with no preparation at all…’winging it’ is a fabulous life skill 🙂
Big thanks to Mrs Johnstone, Mr Swift, Mrs Pearson and Mrs Wall for supporting their houses.
Congrats again to Davis – House Science Champions 2025
