    Year 4 have been learning about Digestion in Science this term. We went to an exciting digestion workshop called  ' It takes Guts!' at the Science Museum. Read what some of the attendees thought about the trip :

    I loved going on the Science Museum trip. In the Digestion workshop, the lady used a flamethrower and the flames went as high as the ceiling !

    The Science Museum was amazing ! The instructor asked us to mix and mash a variety of different food in a bowl and put it in a bag, like a stomach. Then she cut a hole at the bottom of the bag, and it came out like … Everyone was screaming when she squirted us with saliva, but it was actually only water.  My favourite part was when she started real flames with the flamethrower !

    I had lots of fun when we went to the Science Museum. The best bit was the fire bit with a real flamethrower and huge flames ! It was a fabulous trip. I recommend this trip to anyone who likes stuff like slime and digestion.
