Week ending Fri 14th Oct. 2022

On Monday Professor Hydrogen Peroxide visited school and Class 4 loved his demonstrations of science experiments!

Here is a brave volunteer helping the demonstration that fire needs fuel, heat and oxygen to burn.

To make an explosion, fuel, heat, gas (oxygen) and pressure is needed. Professor Hydrogen peroxide made an explosion in a Hot Chocolate tin.

An explosion with water and Vitamin C tablets. The gas produced by the tablets builds the pressure in the cannister until it explodes.

Class 4 proving that gravity is an extremely strong force...they can't escape it.
