All of the BCS students applied themselves superbly but unfortunately ...

Starting back into the school year, grade 9 spent three full days deeply contemplating the inner workings of eggs. Under the guidance of Ms Lawrence (Biology), Dr Samalikova (Chemistry) and Dr Oates (Physics), the annual Science Days give the 9th grade students a chance to perform science experiments without the ...

After learning the mathematical principles of surface area-to-volume ratios, students were asked to apply this knowledge to how cells carry out the vital functions of taking in nutrients and getting rid of wastes. Since the relatively low surface area-to-volume ratio of large objects presents a challenge to living things, students ...
