Our Year 10 top science class recently participated in the prestigious National Scientific Thinking Challenge (NSTC) — an exciting, thought-provoking competition run collaboratively by leading UK universities: Warwick, Southampton, Bristol, Newcastle, Manchester, and Oxford.
The NSTC stretches students’ minds beyond the classroom, encouraging curiosity, resilience, and analytical thinking. It offers a rare opportunity for students to engage with real scientific reasoning in a fun and engaging way.
We’re thrilled to announce that several of our students performed exceptionally well, earning silver and gold medals for their outstanding problem-solving and scientific thinking. Their success is a testament to their hard work, curiosity, and dedication to learning.
Our Year 10 participants enthusiastically embraced the challenge, demonstrating creative reasoning and a passion for science. We are incredibly proud of their achievements and look forward to seeing how these budding scientists continue to grow in confidence and capability.
Well done, Year 10!
