Landfill Visit

JThe trip on the bus was very exciting, a first time for many.

We learnt about different types of plastics some are recyclable and some are not.

Landfill Visit

We found out lots of facts from Angela on our visit to the Landfill.
You might like to hear some too.
We had to wear these Hi Vis vests as a safety procedure. Don't we look smart?

Reading with our Buddies from Room 7 for Book Week

How to make a Fire Extinguisher.

Today we made our own Fire Extinguisher. In a bottle we mixed vinegar and baking soda. Our bottle had a straw attached, and we lit 3 candles. The vinegar and baking soda reacted together and created a gas called carbon dioxide. The gas blew out the candles. We could hear the gas escaping from the bottle.

Milk on the move.

Here is Room 01 doing a science experiment. We used "whole milk", which has lots of fat in it. Added drops of different food colourings and dish liquid. The dish liquid tries to break down the fat in the milk and it swirls and twirls, mixing the colours and moves the milk around the dish.

What happens if you use different milk? What happens if you use different dish liqiud?
