BLOSSOMING SCIENTISTS AT BUCKLAND PRIMARY

Last week, Buckland Primary School in Staines saw our faithful Associate, Peter and a band of volunteers deliver two of our exciting Discovery Science Workshops. A total of 120 pupils took part. Year 2's learnt about gravity and forces in a fun and practical way, utilising the making of parachutes and dropping eggs! Meanwhile, the pupils in Year 6 became Circuit Detectives for the day. This workshop requires the children to inspect various circuits and find the faults. They consolidated new knowledge in a fun way whilst building on team-working skills. One pupil said, 

“It has made me feel more confident about science and how circuits work.”

another commented, 

“It made circuits much more fun. I thought it was going to be boring but I actually really enjoyed it!”
