Today we had great fun using paper mache to make our 3D robots strong and sturdy.
“I liked using paper mache for my robot because it was very messy!” – Innaya
“I loved doing the paper mache because it was fun and messy – afterwards my hands were very sticky!” – Kayleigh
“Today I enjoyed getting messy! The dried glue was peeling off my hands. I enjoyed making my robot stronger.” – Briony
“The paper mache was very fun. I liked sticking the paper on my robot.” – Alfie
Hopefully, tomorrow all the paper mache has dried. We will be painting on Wednesday as the Primary 5’s are out at swimming tomorrow and we don’t want them to miss out. Check our blog on Wednesday to see our robots coming to life!

Next week we are looking forward to using paper mache to make our 3D robots strong and sturdy. After that, we will paint the robots using special metallic paint – we can’t wait!
Today we mixed vinegar, washing up liquid, water and red food colouring. We then added this to some bicarbonate of soda inside our volcanoes and there was a big eruption when all the chemicals mixed.
“The eruption was the best and coolest thing in the world!” – Iona
“I thought it was very cool!” – Kayleigh
“I mixed the bicarbonate of soda into the mix and it made the volcano overload with foam.” – Kieran
Have a look at our erupting volcano videos! 😀 (Videos will only play on a computer)
