Neatherd High School: BAE System Roadshow Today, Neatherd High School was visited by the BAE Systems STEM roadshow with a focus this year on “waves”. Pupils from year 7 and 8 were treated to an hour long display of experiments, equipment and demonstrations of how waves are used within so many areas. Pupils learnt about the different types of waves, light and sound. Also the power of waves at sea and the devastation they can cause. With snippets and hard facts: speed of light, time taken for light to travel to earth, and force of waves at sea, pupils were able to relate the theory to the practical demonstrations. The event is in collaboration with Royal Academy of Engineering, BAE Systems, Royal Air Force, Royal Navy and Tomorrow’s Engineers. Mr Chapman, Head of Technology and STEM
