Hello everyone,<\/p>\n

What a fantastic week we had for British Science Week last week. The boys and girls really enjoyed having some visitors in to tell us all about their STEM careers and they had a great time taking part in different science activities throughout the week and during our Friday science afternoon.<\/p>\n

First of all, the whole school would like to thank our fantastic visitors that we had throughout the week. We really enjoyed learning about all the exciting things you do in your jobs and it has definitely inspired a lot of us! Thank you so much for taking the time to speak to us.<\/p>\n

Each stage took part in different activities throughout the week to celebrate science. Some of these were related to this year’s Science Week theme, which was growth.<\/p>\n

Primary 1 had a science filled week with lots of investigations. They made boats from different materials to see if they would float or sink. They also discussed why some designs were better than others and what they could do to adapt them. They discussed gravity and made helicopter spinners. Primary 1 also looked at the weather and the are planning on recording the weather over a period of time. They enjoyed making tornadoes in a bottle.\u00a0 On Friday afternoon, they made their own greenhouse gloves where they planted some different seeds. They will be watching them closely to see which seeds grow first. They also enjoyed their engineer visits.<\/p>\n
