Renfrew Science

I have created a branch off my existing website to help support colleagues/pupils with National 5 Chemistry 🧪 please feel free to like/retweet & share with your pupils/colleagues 📍 mrmurraybio.org/n5chemistry

1.6 enjoyed learning about static electricity today using the Van Der Graaf 🧑‍🔬 Lots of them even stayed over break to have an extra shot! @RenfrewScience ⚡️⚡️

Amazing revision of the Cardiovascular System by pupils in my Higher Human Biology class 👏

S1 pupils visited the Sky Up Academy today where they produced and recorded their own news article about the impacts of climate change on planet Earth 👏🏽 We definitely have some stars in the making ⭐️ Well done everyone! @renfrew_high

Our February Scientists of the month! Great work from all on this board in demonstrating “Respect” in their science classes 🥳

TODAY’S THE DAY! Applications are OPEN to all S5 pupils in Scotland for Scottish Space School 2024🚀 The residential programme will be running on campus from 10-14 June 2024. Meet NASA astronauts & engineers and learn more about engineering study bit.ly/strathSSS

S3 biology were learning about the production of carbon dioxide by yeast by making bread rolls today with Mrs Forrest! Don’t they just look delicious 😍🥖 great work by all 👩🏻‍🍳👨🏻‍🍳

And some more… 😍🎄

Our science department went all out this year on our Christmas doors 🎄 Can you guess what the theme was…?

Last period of prelim revision before the holidays with National 5 today. They enjoyed playing Tetris Tussle, testing their knowledge of unit 1 and 3 @RenfrewScience

These STEM ambassadors from a variety of backgrounds presented to our S2 pupils today. They each shared their personal career pathways and their experience of working in STEM as well as offering general advice on choosing the right subjects. Thank you. @renfrew_high @ScotSTEMAmb

S3 Biology using Playdoh to successfully model enzyme action 👏

Our S5&6 Scientists enjoyed a great workshop today @gsc1 on precision medicine 🔬🧬🥼 Thank you to all that made the trip happen! Our young people had a wonderful time 😄

Another fantastic set of young scientists representing and demonstrating our school value of “Care” this month. Congratulations to all who were nominated by their teachers 🥳👨🏻‍🔬👩🏼‍🔬

Yesterday, some of our S2 scientists visited Thermo Fisher in Renfrew. Pupils were extracting DNA from strawberries and viewing cells using fancy microscopes! They really enjoyed using all the different pieces of equipment! They even left with their very own lab coat!! 👩🏼‍🔬👨🏻‍🔬🧫

Looking forward to seeing some keen N5 chemists for supported study after school today! We are going to look at all things calculations 🧮

4D revising for their end of unit 1 test using the graffiti method 🎨@RenfrewScience

The structure of a neurone lesson is always a favourite for our Higher Human Biologists! @RenfrewScience 🧠

Happy Halloween from Renfrew High Science Department 🎃🎃

Nat5 Chemistry Supported study starts tomorrow (Thursday 26th) after school with Mr Grant. Come along prepared with questions 👨🏻‍🔬👩🏼‍🔬
