Purbeck Science Fair 2025: A Resounding Success!

The fair featured an impressive array of interactive activities and exhibits suitable for all ages. Attendees had the opportunity to engage with renowned organisations such as The Etches Collection, the Institute of Physics, Defence Battlelab, and the University of Southampton. Local partners, including the Dorset Wildlife Trust and the Urban Heaths Partnership, also contributed to the diverse range of exhibits.

One of the highlights was the return of the 'Science Dome,' offering immersive experiences that captivated both children and adults. Additionally, The Purbeck School's own science staff and students conducted interactive demonstrations covering topics like chemical reactions, non-Newtonian fluids, genetic sweet creatures and bridge-making.

The success of the Science Fair 2025 was a testament to the collaborative efforts of students, staff, and community partners. The event not only provided a platform for learning but also fostered a sense of community and curiosity among all who attended.
