STEAMs days term 3

The success of STEAMs days in term 2, meant the return of a further two action packed days during term 3. The much anticipated event, causes a real buzz of enthusiasm throughout the syndicate; children eagerly selecting their activities and then nervously awaiting the outcome, unsure whether their first-choice was available.

On the morning of STEAMs days, the children excitedly pace the syndicate hoping for a glimpse of their forthcoming activities. Teachers rushing from cupboard to classroom to prepare last-minute resources in preparation for the intense, resource-heavy day.

STEAMs (acronym for Science Technology Engineering Arts Maths and Social Sciences) is an extension day, for children to challenge themselves in a range of activities that might not be feasible during the regular school day.

Again, activities were diverse: Ice-cream making, murder mystery maths, first Aid, architecture, bridge building, robotic hands, photography, boxing, creative writing were all on the agenda, alongside many other inspiring and challenging activities. The children reporting very positive feedback, and a fun-packed day of curious questions and high-level thinking.
