Pupils in Junior and Senior Infants enjoyed participating in Science Week. The children completed lots of interesting experiments. They made rockets using paper and a straw. The children enjoyed making oobleck using water and cornflour. We learned how to make raisins dance using carbonated water. Mr. Goulding showed us how to make a lava lamp. The children designed and built rockets using our Polydron set during Aistear. Well done boys and girls!
