A nice close up of some cheek cells, any thanks to the Scientist based in Lochailort who donated an incredible microscope to the school! 🔬🦠

Quick replication of a cool result from @veritasium.bsky.social!

A short clip of one of the simple motors built by S2 and S3 this week ⚡🧑‍🔧. Many thanks to @exploratorium.bsky.social for clear and detailed instructions!

Thermite with S2 💥🚂
Thanks to @rsc.org, Ms Powell and Mr MacKenzie for all the work in the background!

Sampling trip to Loch an Nostarie with S3 (and a couple of S4 helpers). We saw lots of tadpoles, a few leeches, some sticklebacks (maybe?), a mayfly exoskeleton and the carnivorous sun dew plant. Hope everyone had a chance to get out and enjoy the wildlife this weekend ☀️

Thanks @esa.int and ESERO for a lovely sunny afternoon launching rockets 🚀🧑‍🚀

This took about 4 hours.....thanks to everyone who played football (and didn't kick me), the supporters and Mr Dooley for a nice afternoon activity a few weeks back ⚽☀️🌊.

This might be one of our favourite pieces of homework to be handed in. Well done to this S1 student for their creativity and attention to detail on the cells homework. Can other pupils work out what type of cell this is? 🔬

Merry Christmas from the Science Department #ScienceGreenHouses
