A fascinating lesson and activity led by our instructor, Nigel, allowed the group to explore and understand Newton's laws of motion. Following the theory they learned how to make and design their own rockets. Next, Nigel led them outside to fill the rockets with gun powder and launch them - the children were amazed by how high the rockets went! Luckily, we were able to retrieve almost all the rockets. Impressive stuff.
Meanwhile, Mrs Bennett, Mrs Evans and Mr Richmond's groups walked along the country lanes in search of the River Hooke. Upon arrival, Emma reviewed and taught the group how to practically and accurately draw a cross section of the river and also test the velocity of the river.
