Year 11 Wheeler students got a lesson in lipids when they came to Wellington College today.
The students, who come from 17 different state schools, also enjoyed a careers session and lessons in maths and English.
The Wheeler Programme is a fully-funded programme for state school students within the Wellington College Learning Alliance.
Twenty-four students are selected in Year 9 and the college helps support them until their graduation from the programme at the end of Year 13.
The programme includes a mixture of group activities, visits to workplaces, universities, organisations and people; talks, lectures, workshops and discussions; individual coaching, and tailored mentoring.
