Class 14 have had great fun learning about water resistance by designing and then testing some tin foil boats.

The great news was that only 3 sank!

The winners of the races were the ones that had been made more streamlined so they cut through the water more efficiently.

Well done class…

This week we enjoyed carrying out our own science experiment with balloons.

We filled them up with air and watched how they zoomed around the room as the air came out and also how they can make a squeaky noise.

Some of the balloons we filled with water and flour to see how they feel and how…

This week in Nursery we have been exploring shaving foam and observing what was happening with it when we added food colouring.

The children commented: ''it's like soap'', ''It smells like bubble gum''.

We have also made colour experiments using skittles and water. The children were excited…
