On Friday 15th March a group of year 5, 6, 7 and 8 pupils travelled to Birmingham to attend the Big Bang Fair. The Big Bang UK Young Scientists and Engineers Fair is the largest celebration of science, technology, engineering and maths for young people in the UK. The various shows, stalls, exhibits and workshops certainly did bring science and engineering to life. We watched a show on Deadly Diseases, took part in the Shell Salt Water Car Challenge, carried out riveting with the RAF next to a Red Arrow, raced robots round a maze and held cockroaches. That is just a flavour of the very varied activities! You can see more information about the event here.
