Our year five pupils have had a brilliant time becoming scientists in the Chemistry laboratory at Wolsingham School and Community College. The programme of activities ran for half a term, with the children enjoying lunch at the school then an afternoon in the science laboratory. All the children earned their Bunsen burner certificates allowing them to observe changes when they applied heat during their experiments. They have had lots of fun investigating acid and alkali solutions, exploring chromatography and the magical powers of static electricity – not to mention the fantastic properties of slime! Each child was presented with a certificate as a memento of the experience.
