A subject close to my heart: science.  What a wealth of it to explore today at the Manchester Science and Industry Museum on our whole school trip.

There was some free exploring, some hands-on experimenting and class workshops to get into some aspects in more depth.  Class 3 had a blast in their explosion-focussed activity where they looked at various aspects of fire to investigate the perpetrator of a pyrotechnic crime (I’ll let them tell you how it was done!)

Class 1 had a talk on how steam trains are powered whilst class 2 had an amazing demonstration of tricks using light.  There were headless children, a ghost Theo and much more.
