Earlier this month students from the surrounding primary schools attended Woodham Academy for the final session in a yearlong Science club ‘Woodham Sparkies’ Over the course of a year students attended 6 sessions covering a wide range of topics including astronomy and the amazing world of microbiology.
All students were presented with achievement certificates before embarking on their final challenge of the year, the annual ‘Woodham Sparkies’ Rocket contest where parents competed against their children to build a water rocket that could reach the top of the school building. All the rockets built were a huge success and 3 groups were presented with prizes for their achievements in aerodynamic design, stability and of course the prettiest rocket.
‘Woodham Sparkies’ Science Club is open to all year 5 and 6 students from the local area and we are currently enrolling students for the 2015-2016 programme. If your child is interested in coming along please contact: Nichola Jenkins on info@woodham.org.uk
