Dress as a scientist day - Monday 9th March 2026 π§ͺπ§π¬π¬ππ₯Όπ
π¬β¨ British Science Week – Dress as a Scientist Day! β¨π¬
To help us celebrate British Science Week, we’re inviting all pupils to dress as a scientist for the day!
When you think “scientist,” the classic image is a lab coat – and if you already have one, perfect! But you don’t need anything special to join in the fun. An oversized white shirt or Tβshirt makes a brilliant DIY lab coat. Add a few handβdrawn pockets, buttons or “mysterious stains,” and you’re halfway to being a chemist or inventor! π§ͺ
Accessorise with:
- A clipboard
- Safety goggles
- Pens and pencils in your pocket
- A handmade ID badge or lanyard
But remember — scientists come in all forms!
Why not dress as…
π¬ A marine biologist – carry a cuddly dolphin
π΅οΈβοΈ A forensic scientist – wear a boiler suit
π¦ A palaeontologist – bring along a toy dinosaur
π An astronaut – because astronauts are scientists too!
Or get creative and dress as a famous scientist:
- Ada Lovelace – Victorian dress, first computer programmer
- Jane Goodall – shorts, boots, binoculars, and a cuddly chimp
- Thomas Edison – smart suit and a pretend light bulb
- Isaac Newton – grey wig and an apple π
- Galileo – long dark robe, belt, and a telescope
We can’t wait to see our school filled with brilliant young scientists! ππ§¬π
