We are having a really exciting day. Dr. Malachy Thompson is a scientist, a chemist. He came to school today to do some really interesting experiments with us.
He also presented us with our second Green Flag, our Award of Science Excellence plaque, and our Discover Primary Science certificates.
Thank you so much - we had a wonderful day. Dr. Thompson's show was so exciting. He did some exciting explosions with lighter fluid,
showed us how the colour yellow can be made to disappear, made soap bubbles with oxygen explode,
showed us ultra violet light and how it makes white clothes and even teeth shine,
showed how camphor salts wriggle and squirm in water, until you touch the water with your oily finger,
made hydrogen whistle and pop,
blew up a hydrogen filled balloon,
made a hydrogen-peroxide volcano,
and made a can with water explode its lid.
Science is really exciting!
