P5.16 braved the weather today and all enjoyed a day at Whitelee Wind farm!

The class spent the day learning about renewable energy and were split into two groups to tour the wind farm.

They all then had the opportunity to become scientists and engineers and discover the mechanics behind each wind turbine. The speakers were impressed with many of the class’ predictions and answers to questions!

With a break in the weather we ventured outside for the Ranger’s investigation challenge where we learned it took 20 pupils to hug all the way around a wind turbine.

To end the day we finished with pupils revealing their inner abstract art talents.

 

A great day spent as part of the class’ Irresistible Curriculum this term!
