British Science week is a ten-day celebration of science, technology, engineering and maths that took place between 5-14th March.
While it is usually celebrated through out the school with different experiments and science related activities, this year we were welcoming students back from distance learning.
The Nursery Classes and Reception did a week of different activities and experiments. These included:
Making ‘lava’

Making slime

Mixing colours

Planting seeds



Making rainbows


Testing what sinks and what floats


Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 doing the volcano experiment, creating a ‘lava’ using bicarbonate of soda and vinegar.

Year 4 were given the task to create a game with magnets in teams. One group created a ‘Bumper car’ game and the other two groups created ‘football’ games.

Prior to Year 7 and Year 8 each year built their own model volcano and created a chemical reaction to produce a ‘lava’.
