Alongside Whickham and Dryden schools the pupils ran the CLC like a real life news centre - they collected up to date news stories from the Internet and prepared their own reports using laptops and industry standard television and radio recording equipment. This is in preparation for the real BBC School Report day on Thursday 13th March 2008.

This is done by breaking down glucose to make lactic acid and energy. It is mainly used in short burst events such as sprinting and javelin.

To get this energy, oxygen is needed to convert the glucose into the energy. The word equation for this process is:

The carbon dioxide is breathed out, as it is not needed in the body along with the water, which is breathed out as water vapour.

Thomas Hepburn pupils were asked to create a news desk scene or a two minute radio broadcast about the issue and make it as scientific and interesting as possible!

Once a term a guest speaker comes in to discuss an area of science which they are an expert.
The event is very informal, with pupils encouraged to ask questions, leading to an open discussion. Refreshments are made available free of charge.
