Energy Workshop

We were delighted to welcome an Energy Workshop from the Lifetime Lab.

Our 3rd, 4th and 5th classes engaged in the energy workshops which covered the topics of energy sources, climate change, CO2, and what we as individuals can do to reduce the amount of energy we use.

The classes completed some fun curriculum-linked energy experiments, for example, did you know you can make a battery out of a lemon?

Towards the end of the workshop, the children played Guzzler’s Energy Challenge, where the aim of the game was to collect as many energy points as possible – and avoid the dreaded Sin Bin! Each of the classes had a great morning of learning and fun.
