The Penicillin workshops with @KilmarnockFC & @GSK Irvine have been such an engaging experience for @NAC_Education learners. We reached close to 600 pupils and more than 200 of these young people achieved a Heritage Hero Award. @HHAwardScot

P5 worked with @GSK Irvine & @KilmarnockFC to learn about how Alexander Fleming discovered penicillin. Did you know the Killie top features the molecule for penicillin? We are working towards our Heritage Heroes award & enjoyed a mini ⚽ tournament along the way @NAC_STEM
