British Science Week at Ermington Primary School 13^th - 17^th March 2023

British Science Week is a ten-day celebration of science, technology, engineering and maths which will take place 10-19 March 2023. Here at Ermington, we will be celebrating this week during 13^th -17^th March 2023.

During the week each class will be focussing on this year’s theme which is connections.

We will be basing our specific learning on ‘connections with our planet’. Each Year group will focus on a different goal based on the UN sustainability goals these will include incorporating working scientifically, careers and links to industry.

The children will be involved in 2 whole school assemblies – one to kick off our week on the Monday and another on the Friday, where they will get to showcase the work they have done to the rest of the school.

So what can you do to help?

Do you work in areas linked to STEM (science technology engineering and maths)? Would you be willing, or know some who would be willing to give up some of your time to support our children?  We are looking for people who would be able to deliver a presentation/ workshop or Q&A to classes within our school during science week. We are happy to pair you up with smaller groups, different age groups, what works best for you.

If you think you have an idea please contact me and we can make some plans. We would love to build ‘our connections’ with our own school community.

Any questions please get in touch

Kindest regards

Mrs Clare Starkie-Pell
