Explorathon is back!

Friday 29th September

On Friday 29th September over 300 cities across Europe will celebrate research in a one-night continent-wide festival: Explorathon! All across Glasgow, get up close and hands-on with our world changing research. Discover the truth behind the headlines as we ask “Do you believe in Science?” at Kelvinhall. Sing along as we explore how Victorian novels are turned into hit musicals or join us for an evening of curiosity at the Riverside Museum, packed with hands-on activities. It’s all totally FREE!

St Luke’s Science Visit

Pupils from St Luke’s visited this morning with some fluffy little chicks. After a brief presentation of their science project and how they hatched the eggs and cared for the chicks. Pupils were also given an opportunity to hold the fluffy little birds.

“They were really warm, fluffy and soft.”

“I learned how to properly care for chicks”

“I found out that fertilised eggs are softer than others.”

“I found out how to tell the difference between male and female”

“It’s really relaxing to hold them. They’re very, very cute”
