Year 6 - Science Day
Date: 18th Mar 2026 @ 4:54pm
We had an amazing Science Day today! 🔬✨
Our investigation question was “Does the amount of sugar in a biscuit affect how many times it can be dunked?” 🍪🫖 We planned our experiment carefully and then carried it out—managing to sneak in a biscuit tasting too! 😋 We discovered that biscuits with more sugar tended to soften and break more quickly, while biscuits with less sugar held their structure for longer and survived more dunks. ✔️
After our investigation, we headed to a workshop in the hall with Rebecca.
First, we explored circuits 💡🔋 and learned that if a circuit is broken, the lights or buzzers won’t work. Then we took on a physics challenge, using only our breath to blow a cup out of a stacked tower. 🌀🥤 Finally, we used physics again to create a mini tornado effect to lift a sunken satsuma from the bottom of a water jug all the way to the top. 🍊💧
