Peebles Science Festival

Article posted: 17 June 2009

Peebles schools had a great two days of Science and Technology at the Eastgate Theatre on 15th & 16th June.

Day one was for early Years pupils P1-P3 and they enjoyed w/shops from Glasgow Science Centre, Sniff, Look, Listen, Generation Science, Light Explorers, & Becky's Animates. K'Nex Challenge & Moon phases were also popular.

On day two for Upper Primary & S1/2 "Who wants to be a scientist " was a great hit with staff joining in on the Bed of Nails.

Royal Observatory had the Inflatable Planetarium along which was very popular and the children engaged with a "Food & Drinks" challenge. A K'Nex Disaster Challenge taxed the team working skill of all the participants.
