Magna Science Adventures

Magnificent Adventures at Magna
Form 1 had an action packed, fun day at Magna Science Adventure Centre.  The enormous venue has four pavilions, one for each of the elements; fire, water, air and Earth.  Each pavilion is full of many games, activities, facts and demonstrations specific to the element.  It wasn’t a surprise that the children enjoyed the water element the most, where they got the opportunity to get wet and play with water. The children also took part in a ‘Rockets and Balloons’ workshop which supported their recent Science topic very well.  Hot air balloons were created out of different sized plastic bags, testing out which worked the best against the gravitational force.  They then witnessed a rocket blasting along a thin wire using air, water and then finally fire, this was very exciting! The children had hands-on experience creating their own mini rockets using a chemical reaction of vinegar and bicarbonate of soda, so simple but such fun! A fantastic day was had by all.
