Science Club

It’s been a fantastic start to the year in Science Club! We’ve welcomed some enthusiastic new members and it’s been lovely to see our returning students back again now helping out, sharing their knowledge, and continuing to explore their love of science.

This term, we’ve already carried out some colourful flame tests, watching elements come to life in vibrant bursts of red, green and blue. We’ve also been busy taking care of our growing population of stick insects, which has now reached an impressive 36! Some students have even taken them home to care for, learning about their needs and how to look after living things responsibly.

Next up, we’ll be getting into the spooky spirit of the season with some Halloween-themed chromatography and a heart dissection, perfect for those who enjoy science with a bit of a scare!

A special shout-out to Harper E-W our resident stick insect expert for her fantastic help with them and for her incredible patience while counting every single one of them! Also, to Caitie S, who continues to come along and share her wonderful scientific discoveries after many years. It’s always a pleasure to hear about her findings and see her enthusiasm for science still going strong.

Science Club continues to be a place for curiosity, creativity and a shared sense of wonder about the world around us. We can’t wait to see what our young scientists discover next!
