What are exothermic and endothermic reactions? Come make elephants’ toothpaste and launch a small rocket to find out.
Sun 16 June – Contaminated Water/Water Treatment Plant
Investigate how successful our water treatment plant is for cleaning polluted mine-water. Experiment with lab equipment to test if the iron content is safe to be released into the local river.
