Competition:

Calling all the budding astronauts from Years 7-9! Would you like to go to space? Do you think you could make the perfect spaceship to take you there? If the answer is yes, this term’s Science competition might be just for you! Your task is to make a model of your spaceship that you have designed (a small scale version obviously!) Be creative; think about everyday things you could use. For example: shoe boxes, egg boxes, yoghurt pots, etc. We would like your designs by Friday 6 November, so you have half term to make your submission the best it can be! Submit your designs to your Science teacher by the deadline and be in for the chance to win lots of Vivos and a chocolate prize!
