Science Day

By Elder Class, in Year 2 - Friday, 14 June 2024

Elder Class have had a super Science Day today. First we read the story of Greta and the Giants which helped us think of things we could do to help save our planet. We then meet Ethan who talked to us about climate change and how he works as a wastewater modeller investigating our urban drainage networks to prevent flooding.

We then learnt about another scientist called Emma Williams who is a Botanist. She told us why she loves being a Botanist and what her job involves.

We completed an experiment, investigating the right environments for seeds to grow.

Finally we met Dr Chennell and Mr Rigby from Nikon who talked to us about how he uses microscopes in his job to research medicines.

We have had the best day ever!
