British Science Week Experiments

Students took part in various experiments in Science as part of British Science week 2023.

Coal mining – The students learned how fossil fuels are formed and they carried out some model mining using chocolate chip cookies. This exercise provided a greater understanding of the environmental impacts.

Fruity batteries – An investigation into which fruit would be the best to make a successful battery. Students used apples, oranges and lemons.

DNA Extraction – Students extracted DNA from strawberries and learned about the structure of DNA.

The students have found all three experiments to be successful, beneficial to their Science learning and most of all fun!
