There was a variety of science activities investigated and explored in each class this year, including a range of science experiments, investigations, science shows and much more. 🔬🧪

The selection of experiments includes the following:

The “Volcano Experiment” where the reaction that happens when you mix vinegar and bicarbonate of soda is investigated. 🌋
The coke and mentos experiment.
The “Build a Boat that will float” challenge.
Bubbles within bubbles experiment where the challenge is to make as many as possible without them popping.

The effects certain liquids have on eggs 🥚, with the shell resembling our teeth. 🦷
We also had quizzes, art work and much much more.
6th Class completed a Virtual Mad Scientist Showcase again this year. Their experiments were recorded and the links were forwarded to each class so they could watch them. It was an amazing show and the class did a great job explaining each experiment.
Well done everybody, it was certainly a Science Week to remember! 🧑🔬👩🔬🔬🧪🔎

The weather failed to dampen spirits in our school today as our Halloween parade took place this year in our school hall.
What an array of creativity, color, and smiling faces!!
We must say a huge well done to all at home who helped create such magnificent costumes (and some terrifying ones too). No doubt it was difficult putting together the final touches this morning 😁
We encouraged the use of recycled costumes this year as part of our Green Schools initiative and the standard was extremely high this year.
Our Student Council judged this years halloween costumes and they had a tough job on their hands to pick award winners from all these amazing creations.
Please see our picture gallery below for a snapshot of some of the amazing costumes around our school today.
We hope all pupils, parents, and staff enjoy a well-earned rest during the midterm break.
Happy Halloween![]()
