Science Week

As part of Science week we learned about electricity. We learned how to create static electricity by rubbing a balloon against our hair. The electricity created can repel objects.When Anna touched the surface of the Plasma Ball the electricity flowed from the Plasma Ball through her body, down to the ground (earth)!

Planetarium

The Armagh Planetarium came to our school as part of Science week. We found out about the sun, the moon and the stars. We also saw pictures of astronauts landing on the moon.
