S3 Scientists are hard at work in the planning stages of their renewable STEM project . At the moment they are exploring the resources they’ll need and designing their innovative, sustainable solutions. We are excited to show you their ideas come to life later πŸ‘βœ¨@smallpiecetrust #smallpiecetrust

Our National 5 Biology pupils got hands-on with one of the most fascinating parts of the human body β€” the heart!
Students explored the chambers, valves, and vessels up close. It might have looked a bit like a Halloween prop, but it was all in the name of Science! πŸŽƒπŸ”¬
