SCIENCE WEEK May 2019

We have had an amazing week of science in school this week.

Cranfield University, Anglian Water, Rockwell Collins, Sphere Science, MK Waste Recovery and MK University Hospital have all been in school this week inspiring us with the work they do.

The children took part in several workshops and experiments and have been able to see STEM in action and close up!

They enjoyed learning all about X-rays and how they work from one of our parents, Mrs Iurian.

Mr Stockford from Cranfield University, a lecturer in Aricraft Design helped them to design and fly their own aircraft wings in his workshop.

Whilst with Mrs Dearn, the children carried out an experiment looking at chromotography where they separated colours to make a rainbow. They were very surprised when they didn’t use a blue felt tip but it appeared on their filter paper. They also made a drinks dispenser where the air pressure pushed out water from a bottle through a straw.

“That was fantastic!” commented Harrsion

“Wow! Look at all the colours it has made, ” said Alfie
