The Northern Lights is a joint project between Northfield Academy and RGU. At the first meeting, Geraldine and Charlie from RGU introduced themselves. We played games and were told what we will do when we are there.

On the 3rd December 2015 the S1 Northern Lights group went to the RGU (Robert Gordon University) campus. When we were there we visited the architecture building. First we had lunch then we got split into three groups. When we were split into three groups we did  different activities . We extracted DNA from a strawberry by squishing it in a bag then added two chemicals. We strained it, then caught the DNA and put it in a test tube. We built a stable platform with cards but you could only have scissors or tape. We had to be able to support cans of juice in a set time. We enjoyed the activities. The last activity was to do with stop motion animation. Once we had done two activities we got a tour around the architecture building. After the tour there was a presentation. Once the presentation was over we got a wood cut out of our name. It was cut out with a laser cutter.

On the 21st of April Geraldine and Charlie will be coming back and talking to us about careers.
