Exploring the World of Science

Over 250 pupils from primary schools across the region joined Moreton First for a Science Extravaganza day.

Budding scientists from seven schools across Wrexham and Shropshire including; Penley Madras, Our Lady & St Oswald’s Catholic Primary, Trefonen Primary, Weston Lullingfields and Moreton First Prep School came together to discover the fascinating world of Science. 

The day involved a series of workshops and hands-on demonstrations delivered by Moreton Hall’s specialist STEM teachers to promote the joys of Science and expand children’s learning across Chemistry, Physics and Biology.

The pupils took part in experiments and activities from witnessing chemical reactions, including making ‘elephants toothpaste’ and observing changes in physical properties when dissolving solids into liquids, to building bridge structures and identifying the vital organs within the body.
