A few weeks ago, we hosted an incredible science fair where every child was encouraged to get involved and showcase experiments and demonstrate their scientific knowledge. All the children, from nursery to Year 6 were asked to research, design, investigate and create a science project at home that would reflect their interests and enthusiasm for science and we were inundated with the most amazing, creative and hugely inspiring entries.
Each
class visited the fair throughout the day where they were able to view and
interact with all the amazing projects on display and learn about all the
incredible science that had been going on during the week. To mention just a
few, we had a very impressive and fully interactive water filtration system, a
full scientific investigation into how the size of a meteor affects the size of
a crater, a solar oven, 3D models of adapted leaf cells, bouncy eggs,
electrical circuits powered by vegetables, thermochromic slime and many
explosive volcanoes!
The
science fair was a real celebration of science, all the children (and the
teachers too) thoroughly enjoyed being able to explore all the wonderful
projects on display and it was an incredibly inspiring event for all the
pupils.
Today
the winners from the Science Selfie and Science Fair Competition were announced
in assembly. Thank you to all the pupils and families who got involved with the
science week competitions and for making another SRH Science Fair such a huge
success!
