A brand new Science Club is up and running at CVHS and the first meeting proved to be a hit with the pupils. Ms Pathmanathan joined with pupils to carry out a ‘Methane Bubbles’ experiment. They also carried out a demonstration where the Technicians showed the pupils ‘Elephant’s Toothpaste.’ The finale proved to be explosive when pupils were shown what happens when a hydrogen balloon is set alight! Following meetings of the Science Club proved to be just as explosive, with pupils carrying out a ‘Coke and Menthos Mints’ experiment resulting in some dramatic effects!

Further meetings of the club promise to be just as exciting, with new experiements including ‘The Iodine Clock.’ If you are interested in joining the club, contact Ms Pathmanathan for more details.
