Well done to 1.5 who all gained their bunsen burner licence yesterday for their excellent practical skills.

Did 2.2 use the thermal imaging camera to identify exothermic and endothermic reactions - yes ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป Were we successful- yes ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป Were all the photos I found on the camera of our experiment - no ๐Ÿคฃ #sciencefun

Fantastic work from S3 physics today. Planning an experiment to investigate how far a ball travels when launched from different heights on a ramp. Onwards to processing their results #thisishowweroll #rollwithit

NPA scientists used starter cultures to make yoghurt today. Now all tucked away safely in the fridge. pH will be checked in the morning #science #skills

NPA scientists used the resazurin dye test today to check the quality of milk kindly donated from staff bases around the school. The challenge to donate out of date milk was embraced by several staff members. @ArdAcadPastoral ๐Ÿ˜ณ now for the disposal ๐Ÿ˜ท

Building atoms today with our new S4. Some subatomic particles mysteriously disappeared before we could use them to help with our nuclide notations. Thankfully the data book was on hand to help

NPA scientists have been testing different samples of milk for the presence of sugar, protein and starch. Protein detected in all of our samples but no sugar in the unsweetened soya milk.

Another colourful lesson with our future S1. We learned about stars and elements and had lots of fun flame testing different metal salts. Copper is beautiful but strontium is still my favourite โค๏ธ

As part of our P7 transition week we learned about the pH scale in science and used indicators and common household substances to make some art. #science #colour #pH

S3 chemists investigating the effect of catalase on the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide today. You can even hear some measurements being taken as I tried to catch a video of the oxygen bubbles. #skills #rates

Colourful chemistry continued with the effect of temperature on the position of the equilibrium. More agreement on the colours for this experiment #exothermic #endothermic

Higher chemists investigating changing the concentration of reactants on the position of an equilibrium using a coloured complex. We all agreed that the visual results helped our understanding. Not everyone agreed on the colour of the test tube on the right #orange #yellow
