The theme for the British Science Week 2021 is ‘Innovating for the future’ and will be celebrated in school during the week 8-12 March. You can read more info on the website: https://www.britishscienceweek.org where you will find activity packs and a poster competition. During the week in school, children will be taking part in a range of science based activities which we hope to capture and share on the website here. Unfortunately we will not be able to invite families in to school this year.
