Today, the Y2 Science club took part in an Ogden Partnership event at St. Mary's Junior School in Ware.
Raysa, Jethro, Isabelle, Vihana, Khloe and Lukasz had worked together to create a football game using magnets to present in the competition with 4 other schools!
They enjoyed listening to each school's presentation, and particularly liked the magnetic skateboarding and triathlon event! Additionally, they demonstrated their amazing oracy skills to explain how they had made their game and used magnetic forces to make it work.
After the presentations, they enjoyed constructing rocket mice, magnetic mazes, fridge magnets and playing with the amazing creations!
Congratulations to the team for coming second in the competition! Well done!
