Home Learning
Science Home Learning work for the fortnight commencing Monday 20th April has now been uploaded onto Teams. You daughter will have received an email with a link to the work. Her Science teacher will be contacting her via email over the fortnight to offer support and feedback.
If your daughter cannot access the work them please can you email me at philipwood@newlandsgirls.co.uk .
Alternatively, your daughter can complete the following tasks:

Task 2
We have updated the Science home learning resources on Teams.
You will now find in addition to the revision activities that you have been set, you now have a project to complete.
You should spend at least 6 hours on this project over the next two weeks.
This project is for all of Year 9.
Full instructions for the project can be found here
Please email Mr Clark at rossclark@newlandsgirls.co.uk if you have any problems.
