Today #BioSoc enjoyed a lunchtime presentation on Virology 🦠 Yr12 A Level Biology student Owen researched the area after being inspired by his recent lessons with Dr R and he delivered his findings with confidence!
Well done Owen 👏

Wow!!! Well done Rory ⚽️ what an achievement 🎉

It’s beginning to look (and feel!) a lot like Christmas 🎄 pretty much a full house for Christmas jumpers in 7B today and the boys LOVED competing in a science #kahoot quiz to review particle theory…followed by a few questions on festive trivia too 🎅🎵🎁#ChristmasJumperDay2023
Have you ever seen such hard work and focus from year 13s…especially in the final days before the Christmas holiday!!🎄 The boys were fully absorbed in Dr R’s AMAZING #biology #escaperoom activity. Really challenging puzzles with lots of opportunity to review A level content 👏
Year 13 psychology students attended an exam skills workshop with @tutor2u They were fabulous, fully engaging in all the sessions and confidently answering questions throughout 🙌 #ALevels #examskills #aqaPsychology
Fabulous turn out @StAmbroseColl Sixth Form Open Evening! 📚✍️
Lots of interest and great questions about the excitement and challenges of #ALevel sciences from our own year 11s and lots of external candidates too…just need to smash those #GCSEexams now boys💪
Today our year 13 #Psychology A-Level students took part in a fantastic workshop led by AQA chief examiner focusing on exam skills. They especially enjoyed using (and eating!) chocolates to demonstrate their understanding of different types of data 🍬 Thank you @DuffyKaren
smaller #biologyweek this year with so many other events/trips/exams on but still a great turn out for our #bakeoff 🍰 ‘Bacteriophage Invasion’ stole the show also Dr R’s nod to Dame Elizabeth Anionwu’s work on sickle cell anaemia!#BlackHistoryMonth2023 #SalutingOurSisters
I’ve been so excited for the new @bbc nature documentary to start #BigLittleJourneys on BBCTwo now… get it on! 🐢

Today we celebrate the end of a successful year @StAmbroseColl and say fond farewells to some colleagues, especially to our AMAZING physics teacher Mrs Mansour 🔭🪐 Our loss is Loreto’s gain! We’re so happy for you (but sad to be losing you)…good luck in your new role x
Today we remember Liam 🖤
Liam studied Biology and Chemistry A-Levels at St. Ambrose (2019-2021)
A bright, funny, friendly and caring young man. Very touching to see so many old boys coming together to remember their good friend 🖤 #Ambrosian
