Science teacher, Mrs Horwood and some of her Year 8 pupils hosted a fantastic hands-on science workshop for the Thorpe Explorers (nursery and reception) this morning! There was a carousel of experiments including lava lamps with coloured water, oil and Alka-Seltzer, dancing raisins with lemonade bubbles, whooshing balloons that the boys sent along a string track and feely boxes with baked beans, mash, kiwi fruit, wood shavings, jacks, jelly and spaghetti! The older boys really enjoyed showing off their scientific knowledge and mentoring the younger ones, whilst it was a really successful way of getting the Thorpe Explorers excited about science.
