Every child at the Blackburn school tried their hand at quizzes to spark a passion for the subject.
Head of chemistry Amy Anafi said: “The activities have run all week, and the students have loved it.
“The theme was ‘change and adapt’ and they’ve been looking at everything from how animals have evolved to the effect humans are having on the planet.
“We have looked at how everything changes and evolves over time, and how they can be part of that, from becoming researchers and engineers to revolutionise the future.
“There are so many different career paths in science, and we hope this week has helped to ignite a passion and curiosity for the subject.”
Pupils in Year 7 also enjoyed a day out visiting the Catalyst Science Discovery Centre in Widnes and explored the interactive galleries.
Students said the highlight of the day was watching the flash bang show, where they were shown the all-time greats of the chemistry demonstrations – from elephants’ toothpaste to neutralisation rainbows to freezing daffodils with liquid nitrogen.
The students also investigated thermoplastics, melting and remoulding plastic beads into keyrings to take home. Prizes were given to the winning forms once all the scores had been collated.
