Group 4 IB – Science/DT/FT Exhibition

In our 1st week back after the summer break the Y13 pupils were divided into 16 groups, each with 9 pupils in. Each group was then given a myth busting brief to work on for two days, to maximise teamwork and the range of talents in the group throughout the different sciences and DT subjects. This culminated in the groups presenting at their display stands in the expo, which had people walking on custard, sampling fudge, ice cream and pineapple jam, videos of exploding coke bottles. The winning group was able to explain the best way to keep the fizz in your champagne (very handy)!

A very impressive and creative start to the new term.
