Australia's Mad for Science!

Today the children from Australia class were rewarded for their outstanding attendance with a workshop from Mad Science.

Galactic Grace taught the children about polymers (ask the children about Olly Murs) and gave them the exciting opportunity to make their own slime!

The children discovered what a "chemical reaction" was and they were introduced to a range of different science equipment.

Don't they look great! The children had a fantastic time and were able to take their pots of slime home (watch out for the green troll bogey slime parents).

Now that we have had the workshop I'd love to win again. I'm going to make sure that I will be here every day on time!
