Sciences - Autumn 2023
Our Sciences Masterclasses aim to bring together like-minded Year 5 children (Year 6 in the Autumn Term) from local primary schools to work through a variety of stimulating scientific investigations using techniques and equipment that are not usually available to children of this age.

Although each session is independent of the others, we expect children to attend all the Masterclasses in their course. There is no charge but places are limited and we cannot guarantee a place for every child who applies.
We have written to the headteachers of participating schools to invite them to nominate suitable children. The deadline for applications is 9am on Monday 19 June. We will email all parents/carers by the evening of Wednesday 28 June with news of the allocation of places. Please check your junk/spam box if you have not heard from us by this date. Our next series after this one will be in Spring Term 2024 for 2023-24 Year 5 pupils.
