Physics &Astronomy at Bolton School Boys' Division we have had an amazing time Patterdale Hall again. Thank you to everyone who has made it a great weekend. We should be back at school at about 3.30pm. Bolton School Nic Ford FCCT Philip Britton MBE

#BSBDY9 are using data loggers to investigate acceleration having lots of fun using technology in the classroom ⁦Bolton School⁩ ⁦Nic Ford FCCT⁩ ⁦Philip Britton MBE⁩

#BSBDY8 have started looking at magnetism. They are investigating how to make an induced magnet, trying to make the longest chain of induced magnets. ⁦Bolton School⁩ ⁦Philip Britton MBE⁩ ⁦Nic Ford FCCT⁩

#BSBDY7 and #BSBDY8 Astronomers have been looking at the life cycle of stars. They have made these brilliantly detailed posters to show the different stages ⁦Art at Bolton School Boys' Division⁩. Well done boys! #BoltonCreate ⁦Bolton School⁩ ⁦Philip Britton MBE⁩

#BSBDY9 have been presenting their Big Bang in Bolton projects with our expert judges ⁦Nic Ford FCCT⁩. These projects have helped given them an insight into STEM careers. 👏👏 proud of you all! #boltonInspire ⁦Bolton School⁩ ⁦Philip Britton MBE⁩
