P1 had a super exciting day today for the start of STEM week.

We loved seeing Mario and Luigi at the Launch Assembly and had a fantastic time designing our cars for the Busby Grand Prix.

Dr Poltronieri came to visit us in the afternoon to tell us all about her job making medicines. We couldn’t believe that new medicines can take up to 20 years to test and produce! It was fascinating to hear all about her work and we really enjoyed her chemical experiments. It was amazing to see how the gloves filled with dry ice grew so huge!

Finally, we loved getting the chance to make our own potions at the tuff  tray.  We mixed and poured and had lots of great discussions about what our potions would do. We can’t wait to see what other fun tuff tray challenges are out this week and to attend all our other exciting workshops and activities!
