This morning class 4 headed off to PETROC for the last part of our science week to see the importance of science in somewhat unexpected places. Who would have thought that making the perfect ice cream was such a precise science? :-) There were four workshops this morning; motor mechanics, animal care, engineering and catering. The children were able to [...]

Everyone took part in three more workshops, including blood testing, finding out about SSC Bloodhound, and counting all the daisies inside the athletics track.

Class 4's science week had an eventful start today with an introduction from PETROC on space which had hydroden explosions, gun powder, a flying teddy, a rocket jet pack and then, to top it all off, a barrel of exploding teddies!

Georgeham's base for the day Denise giving instructions for the day. A brilliant day, if not slightly too hot, for the Primary School VolleySport Competition.
