Trips & Experiences

Staffordshire Regiment Museum

Here are a selection of photos from our trip to Staffordshire Regiment Museum wher we got to experience air raid shelters, weapons and other artefacts from the war.

Conductive Music Workshop

We were really lucky to have a visit from Conductive Music UK who showed us how we could use computer programming to create pieces of music.

Chemistry with Cabbage

We took part in a 'Chemistry with cabbage' workshop. We made our own indicators and then tested different liquids to see if they were acidic, neutral or alkali. We then used our indicators to help us with some other various experiments. We used everyday ingredients from around the house too.
