On Wednesday 4 February 2026, 26 of the Year 13 Biologist went on a Biology Field Trip to Wakehurst Place. The Sussex annex of the Royal Botanic Gardens Kew and the home of the Millennium Seed Bank. The students spent the day completing two workshops on DNA profiling and Conservation at Wakehurst Place which included a tour of the world-famous Millenium Seed Bank!
The students had to put their knowledge of DNA profiling into practice with a practical activity where they had to identify the DNA profile that they had generated of plant material impounded by HM Customs and Excise. Did it contravene the CITES rules? The second workshop involved the students learning more about conservation at Wakehurst and the vital role that Kew plays in conserving species for future generations to enjoy!
The students also managed to squeeze in a talk and tour of the Millennium Seed Bank where Kew keeps in its underground vault, a collection of over 2.4 billion seeds from around the world, banking them to conserve them for the future. The day at Wakehurst was a useful and enjoyable day for the students and will help reinforce their learning in the classroom.
