Primary 7 Science Workshops at Kilsyth Academy

The Primary 7’s from all the local feeder schools took part in a super Science Workshop yesterday.  The children were involved in 6 different, hands on science experiments in small mixed groups of 3 or 4 pupils.  The senior pupils leading the experiments were knowledgeable and worked well with the children.  It was a super addition to the transition programme that the Academy already run.  The children from Balmalloch were really enthusiastic about their experience – a great morning.
