The 11th of February is the International Day of Women and Girls in Science.

The International Day of Women and Girls in Science was adopted by the United Nations General Assembly in order to promote full and equal access and participation for women and girls in science. The 11th of February is an opportunity to celebrate the essential role that women and girls play in science and technology.

Here at Biddick Hall Junior School, we encourage females and males to be active scientists. We are all exposed to weekly science lessons and we all take part in Science week events. Our Science Council comprises this year of 70% girls and we certainly encourage all pupils to strive for success and enjoyment in this amazing subject.

 

Happy International Day of Women and Girls in Science everyone!
