Solar Workshop

It was great to welcome Mrs McKee back to Barn Owls class this week for a Solar Workshop. With the Year 6s having visited the Solar Farm at Roadford last year, and with our current Science and Geography learning about energy and sustainability, we could build on what we already knew with a workshop on solar-powered toys.
After recapping current knowledge about how electricity is generated from the sun, we tried out a range of toys and decorations in a useful gap in the inclement weather.
Pupils then had the chance to design and build their own solar-powered toy using components supplied by Mrs McKee (more photos to follow upon completion).
