Spooky science! Spectacular experiments

SCARY AND FUN Children in Year 2 had a spine-tingling time during their Spooky Science Day, filled with ghoulish experiments that thrilled and delighted! The young scientists conjured up a Witches' Brew, creating colourful concoctions that bubbled and fizzed. They crafted Loony Lava Lamps, watching as vibrant colours swirled and danced in mesmerising patterns. The fun didn’t stop there; students also made Fizzy Ghosts that erupted and crafted creepy Ghost Spiders that added a touch of fright. As a sweet treat, they experimented with Scattering Skittles, turning sweets into a coloruful science project. This engaging day not only sparked curiosity but also fostered teamwork among the children, making learning both fun and memorable. With laughter echoing through the halls, Abbey proved that science can be spooky and spectacular! HAIR RAISING TOO Over the half term holiday, Xander had a big hair cut!! His auntie had suffered with breast cancer and she lost all of her hair with the cancer treatment. Xander wanted to do something special to support and raise awareness, so he's been growing his hair out for over 2 years to get it long enough to donate to The Little Princess Trust. The Little Princess Trust provides real hair wigs, free of charge, to children and young people who have lost their own hair through cancer treatment or to other conditions such as Alopecia. The charity is also one of the largest funders of childhood cancer research in the UK. Growing it so long has been hard at times, but he's stuck with it and we're so proud of him! Well done Xander

Ed - [Great effort and such a selfless act - well done!
