Dear parent/carer,
STEM Week Durrington High School 18th – 22nd March 2024
In aid of British Science Week, Durrington High School is having its very own STEM week (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Maths), during the week of 18th – 22sh March 2024. During the week various workshops, guest speakers, competitions and new and creative STEM lessons will be delivered across the school. This is all in aid of raising the profile of STEM, inspiring Key Stage 3 students to continue studying STEM subjects, discover career opportunities and identify the steps needed to reach their aspirations.
During the week:
- A Bucky Ball workshop delivered by Dr Jonathan Hare
- All KS3 science lessons will be hands on with a focus on the theme of ‘time’
- Students will complete science lessons aimed to compliment their existing curriculum
On Friday 22nh March our KS3 students will be showcasing their projects in a STEM Festival. This will be running from 3.30-4.30pm in the Learning Resource Area. It will be open to all parents as a drop-in and will give you an opportunity to speak to our students, and discuss what they have been working on during that week.
You will not need to inform us that you are attending, but we look forward to seeing you.
Kind Regards,
Mr Finch
STEM Week 2024 Co-ordinator
