This week we kick off Science Week at WHSC, and we are looking forward to cramming everything we can into the 4 school days we have this week! There is a prize draw next week for all participants and every time a student participates, they get an entry into that prize! In the Primary School, students will participate with their classes in activities run by our Secondary Science staff, these activities have been allocated to by their classroom teacher. In the Secondary school, students can attend any lunch time activity of their choosing for the week.
This week the college will look to the theme of Sustainability: Not Just Species Survival to capture the hearts and minds of our students in a range of species survival and suitability-themed activities.
Here are just some of the activities students can participate in:
PRIMARY
