Royal Visit

Today many Halcombe children went to Feilding to try and catch a glimpse of Prince Charles and Camilla. Azi from Room 3 was one of the lucky children who was waiting in Manchester Square to see the Royal couple and she was dressed in her finest hoping to meet them.

Kitchen Chemistry: Experiment One

Experiment One: The Lunchbox


Imagine if you left your lunchbox, with left over food in it, somewhere for a whole week!! Imagine in your lunchbox there was a sandwich, some strawberries and a half eaten apple! They look yummy to start with, but how would they look after 2 days, 5 days, 7 days - how about after 2 weeks!?

To investigate changes in food Room 3 left a sandwich, some strawberries and a bitten apple out for 2 weeks. We predicted what we thought would happen, then we observed the changes and took notes and then researched to explain the changes.

Have a look at what happened....
