For parents

As with many websites, this is a large  à la carte menu. Bon appétit!

The links  are but suggestions for parents who may like to know more about science beyond what they read on the pages for and with their children.

1   About the blogs


  1. This blog has reached its page limit and more pages are on Part 2 here.

  2. The page link will be sent to interested parents via the school if it agrees..  Pupils will not see the parent pages.  

  3. There are numerous quotations and most are accompanied by their source.

  4. Encourage children to explore them and use them in classwork and homework.  The habit will enhance their later years in senior school and beyond.

  5. Every comment made on the pages themselves or via the Contact page will be answered.  

  6. There is one venue which is a 'normal' website.  Readers can't leave notes on its pages.  

  7. That's the main reason for using blogs even though they are difficult to edit at times.  It is here.
