MTBS Biology Olympiad Winners
Last week 8 boys from Year 12, in two teams of four, were chosen to represent MTBS in the ‘Biology Olympiad’ at Edge Hill University.
Facing stiff competition from a total of 16 teams from schools and colleges in the region, they were given several undergraduate standard tasks on which they were assessed. These included cell biology, invertebrate ID, preparation of their own DNA samples and a challenging Bio-quiz.
During the day, the students were able to experience working in a university setting, and were given a demonstration of electron microscopy.
Our boys were complemented on their teamwork. We are proud to announce that one of our groups were awarded fourth place, and the other group won first place.
