Senior Girls Science at Claires Court

What better way to test #CCSBYear9’s understanding of forces and motion than with an EGGciting crumple zone design challenge #CCExcel #CCChallenge #CCFamily

#CCSBYear10 have been extracting strawberry DNA as part of their Biology topic on genetics #CCEngage #CCChallenge #CCFamily

#CCSBYear7 and #CCSBYear8 students have been using shaving foam to make art as part of the #STEAM activity #CCFamily #CCInvestigate

#CCSBYear11 have been investigating the ratios on gears as part of their @PearsonEdexcel Physics course and have used their knowledge to make their own gear system #CCFamily #CCChallenge #CCExcel

#CCSBYear9 are investigating Newton’s second law of motion with dynamics trolleys pulling together their experimental, graph drawing, teamwork and analytical skills #CCInvestigate #CCChallenge #CCFamily

#CCSBYear10 have been making their very own stop motion videos to explain the difference between Alternating Current and Direct Current #CCFamily #CCChallenge #CCExcel

#CCSTEMClub have been using some leftover party poppers to investigate whether the colour affects the force needed to pop them with help from some @CCSixthForm volunteers #CCInvestigate #CCFamily #CCEnrichment

#CCSBYear7 launched the #SpaceWeek dress up day with their very own fashion parade! #CCFamily #CCCreativity #CCInspire

Next was the turn of the #CCSBYear8 fashion parade with some out of this world costumes! #CCFamily #CCCreativity #CCInspire

#CCSTEAMClub rounded off this half term with some spooky mud cakes - discussing the changes of state and particle arrangements in the batter and the final product with a big thanks to the Food Tech Department! #CCFamily #CCEngage

#CCSTEMClub have been making waves at Summerleaze lake with @Sail_Maidenhead and @CCOutdoorEd in their home made recycled boats #CCChallenge #CCFamily #CCRiskTakers

#CCSBYear9 took part in a “Desert Challenge” where they had to separate as much water from sand as possible following a marooning using a variety of separation techniques that they have learnt in #Chemistry #CCFamily #CCEngage

#CCSTEAMClub have been using their knowledge of acids and bases to make their very own rainbow burettes #CCDiscover #CCFamily

#CCSFYear12 have been investigating the effect of springs in series and parallel on the overall spring constant using #HookesLaw #CCEnquirers #CCDiscovery #CCProblemSolvers

#CCSTEMClub have spent 3 weeks building their very own recycled boats and today we got to set sail in some rather soggy weather @Sail_Maidenhead with a special thanks from @CCOutdoorEd #CCFamily #CCRiskTakers

#CCSBYear11 are investigating the properties of water as one of their Core Practicals #CCEngage #CCChallenge #CCInvestigate

#CCSBYear9 have been learning about house insulation and have built their own insulated houses to show off their new knowledge! #CCAchieve #CCCreators

#CCSBYear9 have been studying separation techniques in Chemistry and today they were investigating chromatography #CCEnquirers #CCDiscovery

As part of our #CCScience STEAM club, students from Years 7 to 10 from both @CCSeniorBoys and @CCSeniorGirls used the motion of marbles and a variety of other techniques to make their very own art #CCEnquirers #CCFamily #CCDiscovery

#CCSBYear11 have used their experimental skills, understanding of electricity and materials to calculate the specific heat capacity of a variety of metal solids #CCChallenge #CCExplore
