Future Scientists in the Making!
Class 21 had a lovely morning at Aldersley this week, exploring chromatography using felt pens and plants. We then moved on to exploring household liquids and testing for acidity and alkalinity, learning to test and discuss their results. They also spotted where tests had been contaminated and results were affected as a result. We loved working in the Science labs and can't wait for Year 7 science now! Thank you to the staff at Aldersley for our morning.
