Welcome Back - Science!

Everyone seems to have a good break and has come back to school quite refreshed. This term is a busy one so please make sure you have got the school app and keep up to date with everything being sent home.

This term and next term, students music sessions each week are replaced with science. We have set up a variety of experiments and activities around the nature of science for students to work on. This will give them a base understanding for when they move onto high school. 

This week and next week classes will be focusing on:

Room 21 - Dancing Raisins
Room 20 & 19 - Oil Pollution
Room 18 - Why does popcorn pop?
