On Thursday 19th November, we welcomed the lab Rascals to our school. They arrived with a bag full of equipment and we were not disappointed!

Each class enjoyed over an hours session with our visiting experts, exploring the cooler side of science with lots of hands in and Visual activities.

We learnt about the colours within the spectrum of light and wore cool 😎 glasses that split the light into its spectrums. We observed the effects of filters in the light and watched how light created by a flame changed colour depending on which elements were being heated.

We loved watching the electricity travel through the lamp and across the long light bulb, it looked just like a light saber!

We we went to three other workshops where we made pinhole cameras, kaleidoscopes and refracted light with prisms and lenses.

The feedback from the day was amazing and we would like to thank our families for contributing so generously to enable us to have this wonderful learning experience. 👏
