Year 3 made their own cornflour gloop 

Year 4 produced some colourful and very fizzy bath bombs.

Year 5 made their own pH indicator from red cabbage and used it to measure the acidicity and alkalinity of some common household liquids.

 Year 5 also enjoyed a demonstration of experiments in ‘Hogwarts’ Kitchen’ at Judd School.

Year 6 made their own yogurt and Hilden Grange ice cream, with a vanilla flavour good enough to rival Ben and Jerry’s!

The Year 7 pupils picked up some useful survival skills during a special training day at Wilderness Woods.

Year 8 witnessed at first hand the dangers of putting water on a chip pan fire. The week was rounded off with an entertaining assembly as some plucky pupils bravely volunteered for a bush tucker trial - little did they know that they would be eating ants by the end of it - apparently a delicacy of Columbia’s Guane Indians!

The Pre-Prep was also a flurry of scientific activity, with all the children taking part in a themed activity each day.  Activities ranged from making recycled paper and growing crystals, to finding out about how plants feed and chromatography. Reception and Nursery enjoyed playing with bubbles outside on the decking area, making bubble pots and painting with bubbles, as well as learning about the different chemical reactions that occur when making bouncing putty and foaming monsters!
