here’s some poetry by the separate science group: vote for your favourite or submit one of your own…prizes on offer!
first up is beryllium

there once was a prince called william
who made a car out of beryllium
the car broke down
and knocked off his crown
and now he makes them out of aluminium

second is lithium

lithium sweet lithium
will kill me if i eat it
lithium sweet lithium
will melt when we heat it
lithium sweet lithium
can power all our stuff
lithium sweet lithium
can feel very rough
jump for joy and run around ther’s stuff that could be done
when you’re playing with lithium you’re bound to have some fun.

and lastly for now, helium

it’ll make your voice go high
and balloons fly in the sky
it’s a noble gas
with a very small mass
with a full first shell
its as cool as hell

.
