So many of our students didn't know what frogspawn is and have never seen it. It's been so uplifting seeing a whole range of students up to y11 boys asking to come see it and being fascinated. Can't wait for them to start metamorphosis!

Exciting discoveries in our school pond! Our students & Ms Short are checking in on the progress of our frogspawn and tadpoles—nature’s little transformations in action! #ThisIsAP #SpringWatch 🐸 GrowN22

Day 1 of Science Week #BSW25 inter-form challenges Haringey Learning Partnership is our sunflower growing competition. Each form needs to nurture their sunflower and we'll see which one grows tallest #ThisIsAP

As part of our #BSW25 activities we took some Y11 students to Middlesex University #STEM festival to see potential future careers in tech & engineering. Very proud of this student who visited every stall

We have a budding robotics student at HLP who managed to programme the robot to drive around the cones and return to its home station on the board! 🤖 Middlesex University #STEM #ThisIsAP British Science Week

We visited the sports science department @middlesexuni & tested our strength on their machines. Mr Cruz went straight to second place on the leaderboard, with this Y11 student coming in not far behind. We also tested our grip and talked to the students about what is like studying

The highlight of our trip to Middlesex University was meeting Bertie the selfie taking robot! Using 16 lasers the robot was tracking everything going on around it in the room and we could even see people moving on the live map! We could see fun applications for the tech at tourist

I'm so proud of the effort we put into British Science Week at HLP, we make it a whole school event and everyone gets involved. This week has had two amazing trips, tadpoles, sunflowers, insect burgers, and designing new human adaptations ❤️🔬🥼🧪

This lovely student has been amazing at helping look after our tadpoles. Today we cleaned out the inside tank, checked on the tadpoles in the pond and monitored the other life in the pond - mayfly larvae, pond skaters and water fleas. Plenty for the tadpoles to eat!

Very flattered to have been shortlisted for shecancodehq STEM Educator awards. You can see the full shortlist at the link below and vote (for me if you want!). SheCanCode do amazing work so look at the rest of their site while you're there

Back to using this in revision with this year's y11. Last year I even wore a chunky necklace on the morning of Chem Paper 1 to remind them

We were very excited to invite @tsuiallen back for our KS3 coding lessons. This session we learnt to use scratch to code a moving shape, and built a step counter using Micro:bit Educational Foundation #ThisIsAP

I'm still a bit stunned that this is happening. Thank you to Gerry Robinson for nominating me and for the incredible things she said about me in the nomination. And for the science puns 😁

Prom is a milestone many students look forward to - but young people in alternative provision often miss out. At Haringey Learning Partnership, we want to change that. Help us give our Year 11s the celebration they deserve: justgiving.com/crowdfunding/h…
