My Hydrogen Endeavour

My Endeavor is hydrogen. It’s a big topic and the reason I did it is because my dad works for a hydrogen company called Protium I was very interested in hydrogen and all its facts like it’s the most abundant element in the world. Also it can be used for cars and planes we could stop oil and fossil fuels. But its about what I have been doing let’s see.

So far I have made three sheets of information, mascot and a presentation but at my house where me and my dad make hydrogen we have made a model of a car and and we have clear water with no minerals just clear so we pour that into the electrolizer and it separates the o2 ( oxygen) and the h2 (hydrogen) we store the hydrogen and then release the oxygen and we put that hydrogen through a chute and into the model car to power it . and that’s how I am making hydrogen but there is some obstacles like getting the clear water getting the time to do it but I just push through it I really enjoy doing this Endeavor finding out all the different facts like OVER 70% OF THE UNIVERSE IS MADE UP OF HYDROGEN! and there is even more facts and I just can’t wait to tell everyone at the Endeavour fair.

Comic Relief

21.3.25 Port Ellen Primary School

For Comic relief we did an event where you had to bring in anything other than a bag. People brought in all kinds of stuff like trolleys, tool bags and even dog cages. The winner was ….. Ellie with her dog cage. “I loved seeing all the different crazy thing people brought in!” said Finlay. We did this so we could raise money for Comic Relief by selling red noses to all the boys and girls. We raised £345.25! This supports a lot of children’s rights like the right to health and a safe home.

Bee Eco Citizenship Group Meeting

Today we had a eco group meeting to start working on our action plan. Our plan today was to save water because one of our rights(24) is the right to clean water. Water uses a lot of energy to be made safe to drink so we should not waste it. I learned that hoses use lots of water so when washing a car we should use a bucket of water and a sponge. We learned to reuse the water in our school water bottles rather than throwing it away.

Next time we will be planting fruit and vegetables so we can grow them in school instead of buying them. Here are some potatoes we grew in our garden this year and we had them for lunch!

Stem Day At High School

On Thursday 29th August we went to Islay High School for a STEM day. There was workshops about different stuff. The opening speech was a lady from a stem company encouraging STEM for young people. The next speech was a worker from the SSE that was talking about the SSE. Then there was an SSE graduate that moved from the Philippines talk about his time in the SSE. The first workshop we went to was a coding workshop. The little bright lights on the bots were glistening like a stars in the middle of space. The main thing about this workshop: Coding spheros. We got to make spheros weave in and out of cones and do challenges with it. The next station was outside in a polytunnel. It was about bees and other animals. We got to make paper Mache balls. During lunch we asked to get raffle tickets. and the final workshop was about birds. We went to see birds outside with binoculars. We didn’t see much birds. nor variety. But we had a great time!
