Theme : Creativity & Curiosity
This Science Week, we are asking people to consider what it means to be human in today’s world, and how the decisions we make today, will impact humans of the future. Human creativity, curiosity and concepts have transformed every aspect of human life, from how we live and interact with each other to the relationship we have with our planet. Incredible developments have shaped our understanding of ourselves and our world. At times it can feel like these changes are out of our control, from the environmental emergency to being outpaced by technology. It begs the question – what lies ahead, and what role will science play in this? How will the actions we take now shape our collective human experience for both current and future generations?
Areas we are looking at science and the following areas :
· Farming – How science has helped farming become more efficient
· Retail – How science helps us to have a better shopping experience
· Sport – How science helps to track the benefits of sport
· Health – Benefits of AI
As part of science week we visited a farm to see robotic milking, Zoetis visited us to perform experiments, 5th & 6th visited Avondale TY to see experiments and JI-4th classes visited the library to hear more about science and robots.
The children designed apps and these are being submitted for a competition and all children created inventions that will help us in the future.
We are looking forward to having some amazing scientists in the future.
