On Wednesday 6th May, The Ramsey Academy hosted a fun Science Cclub for children in Years 5 and 6 from the local primary schools in the area. Children spent an enjoyable hour learning new skills using bunsen burners and identifying elements!

“I’m so glad I signed up, I can’t wait to come back next week!” was one of the few enthusiastic quotes that was repeated by the children after their first time as they left the lab following a fun-filled afternoon full of new experiences! 

During the second Science Club, the students used microscopes to identify and classify the pond life that had been collected. It’s amazing what can be found! Volunteering some of their free time, some of our Year 10 students, who were previous members of science club, joined us to enlighten the younger students with their scientific knowledge. In fact they had been so inspired by their own Science Club experiences they are now studying triple science. More fun experiments await the students as they continue to discover the wonderful world of science!
