Investigation 2: Water, is still running. It’s the biggest ever investigation into the state of the nation’s water hardness – and the UK’s primary school children are the frontline scientists testing it. So make sure you’re part of it.
You have until 19th March to do the investigation and upload your class data to our interactive map so your pupils can see how what they found compares to the rest of the UK. We need the results (whatever the findings were) for each class.
Coming up next, Investigation 3: Time. Investigation runs 22nd March – 13th April. Start planning now.
Want to get involved? Register here if your school hasn’t already. it’s easy and only takes a few minutes.
