Sun Worshiper - No Respector - Update

Update from our Year 9 sunscreen project which was a great success!

During the project 14 Year 9 students worked alongside Susan Jenkins from Macmillan Cancer Research and Anne Willis and Dr Kay Padget from the University of Northumbria.

It also required the students to research and analyse some of the effects of ultra-violet light on the skin and the effectiveness of sunscreens. Photo's coming soon!
