British Science Week

For British Science Week, Mr Holmes’ Year 8 Science classes took part in a Crime Scene Investigation (CSI) extravaganza. Their task was to solve a crime using their expertise in forensic techniques such as blood group analysis, biochemical food tests and chromatography. The criminal mastermind Bobby “Baby’ Brooks, fantastically portrayed by our own Mr Morton, was no match for the Year 8 investigators and his guilty status was confirmed by the scientific evidence they gathered. A special thank you to Ms Court-Smith and Mr Davis who portrayed the two other suspects, proven innocent by the wide variety of analytical techniques performed.
