Post date: Dec 03, 2018 10:1:17 PM

Pupils from across Killeigh NS recently  took part in fun science activities to celebrate science week.  A fun week was finished off in style with a fantastic science fair which was hosted by Mr Breslins 5th class and Ms Ryans 4th class. There were a wide range of experiments and demonstrations including

how pulleys can lighten the load

• • electromagnets

  • lava lamp

  • surface tension of milk

  • elephant toothpaste

  • how light can be bent

  • sound is a series of vibrations

  • the solar system

  • how balloons can support a group of children

  • charge a phone using a watermelon

  • how carbon dioxide can be made and used to blow out candles

  • slime

Please find a selection of the photos from the day. Unfortunately due to technical difficulties some of the pictures went missing. Apologies to anyone who does not feature here.

5th class learned how to use the same principles as a pulley to easily pull 2 broom handles together.
