Miss Craig, a Stranmillis student, is currently working with P6 and P7. As part of our World Around Us topic - The Egyptians, she has been looking at mummification.

The children carried out an experiment using apples. They used salt, sugar, bicarbonate of soda, lemon juice and gauze to test which was the pest preservative. They will check the apples next week to see if their predictions are correct.

P6/7 learned lots of scientific words like ’control’, ‘hypothesis’ and ‘fair test’.

Thank you Miss Craig for a very enjoyable lesson.
