Year 10 pupils have started their new topic of Senses in Biology. This week, they have enjoyed testing their sense of touch. Over the coming weeks they will be testing their senses of taste, smell, hearing and sight. A huge thanks to our Junior Science Technician for working so hard to put all these fun senses practicals together for the pupils.

Our Year 14 Biologists relished their visit to NWRC Community Education last week for a DNA Fingerprinting Workshop, as part of the Northern Ireland Science Festival. Pupils thoroughly enjoyed the workshop and were excited to extract, amplify and separate their own DNA. A huge thank you to the staff and pupils of NWRC for facilitating this brilliant workshop and allowing our Foyle Biologists to experience gene technology firsthand
