St Julie’s Explore Science

Students at St Julie’s Catholic High School embraced the spirit of the inaugural Liverpool Science Festival with a whole host of STEM related activities including visits to the Big Bang Fair and Royal Society in London, as well as some fiery school based activities. Head of Science, Kate Doran, said: “Having held our own really successful science week earlier in the year, it was wonderful to be able to take our students out to experience some large scale science events, as well as following the footsteps of such giant historical figures as Sir Isaac Newton and Sir Ernest Rutherford at the Royal Society. The support of the Ogden Trust has been a huge help to our work.” One of the highlights of the week was the naming of Year 13 student Olivia Kingston as Ogden Trust North West School Physicist of the Year in a ceremony at the University of Liverpool.
