Pupils at St Cuthbert’s Catholic Primary School in Crook enjoyed an exciting and memorable science experience during a special science show presented by the Royal Institution.

The show captured the children’s imagination as they learned about nutrition, developing a better understanding of how food helps our bodies to grow, stay healthy and function well. Pupils were fully engaged throughout the session and enjoyed seeing scientific ideas brought to life in a fun and memorable way.

One of the highlights of the event was the series of spectacular fire demonstrations, which created a real sense of excitement and wonder. The audience was also amazed by a number of carefully controlled explosions, helping pupils see science in action and inspiring curiosity about how and why things happen.

The visit provided a fantastic opportunity to enrich the science curriculum and encourage a love of learning among pupils. Experiences like these help children at St Cuthbert’s Catholic Primary School to develop curiosity, enthusiasm and a deeper interest in science.

It was a truly enjoyable and inspiring event, leaving pupils talking enthusiastically about science long after the show had ended.
