Epic Junior Science Fair

Last week the Second Year scientists had their annual science fair. After working hard for the second half of the Spring Term, researching topics about questions in their life and school, designing interesting experiments and collecting their data, it culminated in an evening where the six best projects presented their work to parents and teachers alike. Some of the most interesting projects focused on Mouse Trap Cars, Microbial Growth and the 5-Second Rule, but the Moncrieff-Jones science society team of judges decided that the winning team of Florence R, Caitlin M and Aimee L designed and executed an excellent project investigating the melting point of different chocolate bars. Their work was well researched, and they collected some robust data, before displaying it in a clear and interesting poster and delivering a fantastic presentation outlining the project and inspiring us all to enjoy experimenting at home, especially if chocolate is involved!
