Today, a group of enthusiastic Year 7 girls from Harris had the exciting opportunity to visit the Big Bang Fair at the NEC Birmingham — the UK’s largest celebration of science, technology, engineering, and maths (STEM) for young people.

Throughout the morning, the students explored interactive exhibits, took part in hands-on activities, and spoke to experts from a wide range of industries. They discovered how STEM shapes our world and learned about the variety of exciting careers available in fields such as engineering, technology, healthcare, and environmental science.

The trip aimed to inspire our students to consider future pathways in STEM and to show them how their curiosity and creativity can lead to exciting opportunities.

Well done to all the students for representing Harris so brilliantly — we hope the experience has sparked new interests and ambitions for the future!
