Google Expeditions Day<br />

Sixth Form Trip to Cern<br />

Students from all year groups and across a range of<br />

subjects enthusiastically travelled the world using the<br />

Google Expeditions app and cardboard viewers!<br />

Expedition destinations included Borneo, the<br />

Galapagos Islands, Antarctica, New York, Berlin,<br />

Barcelona and many more, taking in many of the<br />

natural and man-made wonders of the world! Students<br />

were immersed in their expedition locations, giving<br />

them a memorable experience and an appreciation of<br />

the different environments around the world! A big<br />

thank you to Amait from the Google Expeditions team<br />

for helping the day to run smoothly and all the teachers<br />

who ran expeditions. #GoogleExpeditions<br />

Mr Clarke<br />

Twenty four sixth form students once again travelled to<br />

CERN this year to see the research of particle<br />

physicists and the work of the Large Hadron Collider.<br />

The students this year were taken to see a real particle<br />

accelerator, designed to make antimatter to be held<br />

and studied. They also learnt about the storage facility<br />

of CERN and how it was made possible to store<br />

2Terabytes of data an hour!<br />
