Science Club

It was with great excitement that Room 2 discovered that the Senior Science Club was open to Year 3 at this time of year, and not just to Year 4, 5 and 6 students.

 Everyone enjoyed experimenting with acid and alkali to make a gas.  Science Club Scientists, working in small groups of two, could decide the type and amount of vinegar,  the amount of Sodium Hydrogen Carbonate  and the shape of bottle they wanted to use.  It was interesting to compare our results and discuss which combination produced the most gas to blow up the balloons.
