    The theme is: Change with a link to; the changes happening in the world all around us,

    from seasons and climate, to materials and energy.

     

    Please submit a piece of work linked to the above theme if possible however, anything scientific will be accepted!

    You might want to provide a photographic piece of work linked to the changing seasons, changes of state linked to cooking, or a written piece of evidence based on climate change for example. Anything is possible!

     

    For those who wish to submit an entry, it will be displayed for others to enjoy

    - which will continue to promote a love of Science across our school.

     

    Good Luck and Enjoy!
