Senior Science Students Visit CERN

Recently, fourteen of our senior science students travelled to Geneva to visit CERN, one of the world’s leading centres for scientific research. Home to the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), CERN explores the fundamental nature of matter and the forces that hold it together. The LHC is the largest machine and biggest experiment in the world, famed for being the hottest, fastest, and emptiest place in the galaxy!

During the visit, students toured the main control centre and ALICE (A Large Ion Collider Experiment), one of the LHC’s four particle detectors. They also explored the CERN Science Gateway, where interactive exhibits brought cutting-edge physics, engineering and computing to life.

This visit is just one example of the diverse opportunities available to our students. We're opening doors to global learning, innovation and discovery.
