The Moonbeams enjoyed being Scientists this week as they investigated how to build Rapunzel’s Tower with blocks of ice and salt. The children worked together to take turns to place the ice cubes on top of one another making sure it did not fall down. The children then decorated the Tower with colours, glitter and sprinkles. Finally they observed the Tower as it started to melt and fall down. Take a look at our fabulous photos.

The Moonbeams learned about Earth Day this week. We listened to a song about what we can do to look after the Earth better and then we did some tasks to help. We recycled, and decided to switch the lights off as much as possible and then we made some food for the birds. Take a look at our photos. They are a bit dull since the the lights were off!
