Number of Students: 11

Gatsby Benchmarks:1,2,3,4,5,6

Primary 2 and year 10 were very fortunate to have a fun ‘STEM’ trip to the Mad Museum in Stratford this month. The students really enjoyed exploring all the interactive inventions. Science and technology skills were discussed with the children and there were a few models that caught the children’s attention. The puzzles in the museum really got the students creative thinking and learning how to solve the puzzles as a team. The trip created lots of curiosity into ‘STEM’ careers and how interesting and fun that path could be. Here are some photos to show the children exploring having lots of fun:
