Andover Primary School hosted a STEM Day to allow children to explore science, technology, engineering and maths in a different way, aiming to promote STEM subjects. Dundee Science Centre and staff from the Education Department of the University of Dundee came along and hosted some of the activities in collaboration with Andover staff. The infant area explored space, the middle area investigated hydraulics and pneumatics and the upper area considered chemical reactions. The day was a huge success; children enjoyed the opportunity to work together on new challenges and this exemplified their learning from the day. It was also a valuable opportunity for all staff to experience a hands-on CPD and take the children\u2019s learning on further in their own classrooms.<\/p>\n
