“It was a fun-packed day for all the children at Dover Park, and it was incredible to see the awe and wonder of science being lived and breathed across the school. The children astounded me with their recall of all they had learned and I am extremely grateful to all the staff for providing another fantastic opportunity for the children at our school,” expressed
Through various hands-on experiments and interactive sessions, the students explored topics such as renewable energy, recycling, and the impact of human activities on our planet.
