Science is Alive

Room 14 children experimented with different science activities during Primary 
science week. They made their very own lava lamp, watched milk dance and found out about motion, wind and gravity through making their own paper airplanes. 

The Shared Reading group read a book about the water cycle and did an experiment on how evaporation and condensation work. 

Here are some of the children's of what the enjoyed, predicted, explored or discovered: 

Cooper - 'I discovered that the dancing milk experiment only started to dance at the end. Perhaps the milk and the dishwashing liquid reacted together'. 

Lucas - 'It was so interesting that we predicted some objects were going to sink but they actually floated'. 

Minna - 'When the lava lamp was made, it was a bit like a volcano erupting'.

Stepping Out Programme

At the end of Term One Room 15 learnt all about road safety.

We learnt about the dangers of sneaky driveways and how to cross the road 

safely. Constable Gordon helped us to learn what to do by taking us out onto 

Kelvin Road so we could practise. 


In the last session with Constable Gordon we learnt about being safe in a car 

and we got to dress up as policemen and policewomen!
