SCIENCE DAY

One week ago 4 people form the university of Auckland,. Kaitlyn, Nina, Taiyo and Juan came to our school to show some things that they could do with science . The whole school gathered in the whare at 10:00 to meet them for the show. After morning tea the senior classes Te Naghere, Te Maunga and Te tahuna got into to 4 groups. We went to Kaitlyn first and saw how to test water. Then we went to Taiyo and made a camera lense. After Taiyo we went to Juan and were looking at lights, we all got to wear special glasses that where ever you look you it would be rainbow colored. We then went to Nina and made rockets with a plastic bottle methylated spirits and fire.We had to make a hole in the bottom and pour in some methylated sprites in and shake it. We then suck a little bit of air into the bottle and then if we wanted to we could light it and it would then let of. I enjoyed having them at our school and getting to make a rocket.
