10.01.2022 **Year 3/4 STEM Day** Students in Room 8 have learned about the disastrous effects of oil spills on the ocean. They made a model of an oil spill and then made a boom to contain It, then they used skimmers, absorbents and dispersants to clean up the oil spill in the ocean. Students of room 9 learnt about what defines a robot, robots we use in everyday life and how robots affect human life. They then designed their own robots with a specific purpose and made them out of recycled materials.
