Some children recently tried the “Storm in a Glass” experiment at home and had lots of fun learning about how rain forms in clouds. Using water, shaving cream, and food colouring, they created mini rainstorms inside a glass. The shaving cream acted like a cloud, holding the coloured water until Read more
This week, some of our children became kitchen chemists as they took part in the exciting “Orange Fizz” experiment at home. Using just an orange and a little baking soda, the children explored how acids and bases react to create fizzy carbon dioxide bubbles. The experiment sparked lots of curiosity Read more
Some of our children recently tried the egg drop experiment at home and had a fantastic time exploring science in action. They carefully set up a glass of water, balanced a tube on top, and placed an egg above it—then, with a quick swipe, they knocked the tube away and Read more
Well done to the children who recently created their own lava lamps using water, oil, food colouring, and a fizzy tablet, turning a simple activity into an engaging science investigation at home. They observed how oil floats on water due to differences in density and learned that the two liquids Read more
For week 6 of our exciting at-home science challenge some children have explored chemical reactions in a fun and memorable way. Using simple household ingredients, they created their very own “burp in a bag” experiment—and the results were both impressive and very loud! The experiment involved combining vinegar and baking Read more
This week, our young scientists took on a very exciting challenge: could a balloon survive being placed near a candle flame without popping? The experiment, called “The Flameproof Balloon,” amazed the children at home and helped them learn about how water can protect materials from heat.
Another fantastic week of science at home! There were some really brilliant examples of ‘milk art’. Well done everyone 😊
What another fantastic effort from our pupils this week at home. Some wonderful science experimenting going on! Well done everyone, you really rose to the challenge of making water rise.
What a brilliant effort at home this week everyone! Well done, make sure you come to see Mrs Grindrod or Miss Maxwell to have your experiment card hole punched. What amazing scientists we have! This week you have explored and investigated colours by creating a walking rainbow. Because of capillary Read more
Wow, what a fantastic effort from some of our pupils this week! They have been busy creating erupting volcanoes at home. They carried out the following experiment to see an erupting volcano: Combine the vinegar, water, dish soap and 2 drops of food colouring into the empty soda bottle. Use Read more
