STEM – P7 visit to Woodward Aircraft Engine Systems

Primary 7 enjoyed an excellent visit to Woodward as part of their STEM fortnight activities on Flight.

After an interesting talk on what the company does, the children broke into groups for a tour of the site. This was followed by a break for water and snacks they provided and 4 activities based on what they had seen and told about.

It really was a fantastic visit and huge thanks go to all the staff at Woodward for making us so welcome!

The final photo is Ben’s skin magnified x220! This tool is used when working with hairline cracks on an aircraft part.

Base 1 Trip to The Science Centre

What a good day we all had at the Science Centre. The children all enjoyed exploring and playing with all the activities. The Planetarium proved to be very popular with the children and they listened very well to find out new information about our solar system.
