come and join us tonight at woodchurch high school open evening. visit the science department in action! loads of stuff to see and do…
in chemistry, experiments include…turning copper into gold (!), big explosions, plant indicators, making soap and of course if it’s chemistry it must mean coloured liquids!
physics has the van der graaf generator, energy conversions, light and sound demos, electrical circuits and electromagnetic spectrum.
and over in biology get to see our snakes and lizards, look at jaws, teeth and skulls, and try your hand at food tests.
