Hearty congratulations go to our Year 13 Physics students: Yonatan Merkier, Damien French, Noah Cantor, Eli Gilbert and Samuel Grant for their recent performance in the Weizmann UK Physics Safe Cracking Competition on Sunday 5th February 2023. London’s top schools were competing in this prestigious event at the world famous Dulwich College campus.

Some of the most talented science students in the country have spent months preparing for this event, in their own time, to create their version of an ‘unbreakable safe’ that can only be thwarted by the application of physics principles.

The Weizmann Coordinator has informed us that once again the standard was incredibly high, with all 18 teams being judged by a varied panel of international experts. Our team entered a safe based on electromagnetism, capacitance and circuitry, which was widely praised by peers and markers, and as ever, our students were a credit to the school.
