March 2019
British Science Week
Hot on the heels of National Careers Week came British Science Week – an annual event run by the British Science Association in celebration of Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths.
This year, Withernsea High School’s Science Faculty revisited the theme of Harry Potter and ‘The Science behind the Magic’. Last used four years ago, this successful theme aims to show how magical concepts can be explained and reproduced using real-life Science skills and techniques.
National Careers Week
Monday 4th March signalled the start of National Careers Week – a celebration of careers guidance in schools across the UK. This annual event provides a focus on future careers at an important stage in the academic calendar, helping to support young people - particularly those who are about to leave compulsory education - as they consider their future options.
