Find a white flowering member of the Brassica or Cabbage family, that’s the #wildflowerhour challenge this week! To help you we’ve asked the fabulous @nervousbotanist for a new #dinkymoira guide 🎉Share your finds this Sunday 8-9pm using #whitebrassicas. Happy flower hunting!

The government responds to concerns around cronyism by creating itself a legal loophole, so it can do what it likes with our money. Neat. theguardian.com/science/2021/m…

The new normal... home Covid testing for teachers ahead of the big return next week... @ucshampstead

Mrs Ward will be looking at comparative anatomy of the heart during a remote dissection club this lunchtime. She will be exploring both lamb and dogfish hearts and discussing why they are so different. All welcome. #UCSenrichment #UCShampstead #UCSbiology #anatomy #heartanatomy

It’s Science enrichment week at UCS and we’re doing lots of remote practical lessons in Biology. Here are some DIY potometers set up by our Transitus students to measure transpiration rate in plants. #scienceathome #UCS #UCSBiology #UCSenrichment #Biologyathome #remoteteaching

Our @UCSHampstead A-Level biologists enjoyed a great day at the London regional @BrainBee_UK neuroscience competition. Thank you to @SWC_Neuro for hosting and a massive well done to Olivia, Michael, Elsa and Hakan who made it through to the national final next month - good luck!

Very saddened to learn about the passing away of legendary athlete, neurologist & former UCS pupil Sir Roger Bannister. Our thoughts are with his family at this time. @OldGowers

Science & maths enrichment week in full swing at lunchtime today. Lab L was full as 2 sixth form students led A-Level biology & psychology students through a brain dissection. Hugely impressive work from Olivia and Michael.

An insightful talk on Monday by Dr Noga Zilkha from the Weizmann Institute on ‘Neurobiological factors associated with social behaviours’
