Dunoon Primary Celebrate the International Year of Light

DPS Glow in the Dark Science 2Dunoon Primary Celebrate the International Year of Light The reallysmallscience group, from Strathclyde University, helped pupils at Dunoon Primary to celebrate the International Year of Light 2015.
Classes took part in ‘nanoglow’ fluorescent workshops to learn why light is so important and discover natural and everyday items that glow. Pupils then used invisible ink pens to write secret messages and produce their very own glowing artwork.

The pupils have been invited to take part in an image competition to compete with other schools in the reallysmallscience on Tour project. Qualifying groups will attend a celebration and prize giving event at Strathclyde University in June.
