Year 8 Science pupils attended an engaging, entertaining and educational STEM roadshow, supported by BAE Systems, The Royal Air Force, and The Royal Navy.
The theme of the show was Electricity. This highly interactive show explored what electricity is and how we generate it. Pupils were amazed by some of the ‘shocking’ demonstrations.
Along with multimedia and interactive demonstrations, Mount Carmel pupil volunteers helped the Road show Team create a simple circuit, explore the pros and cons of different energy sources, create an electrostatic charge with the Van de Graaff generator and for the finale Mr Spencer volunteered to use pedal power to turn the LED windmill with its colourful light display and animations. Thank you to Sophie, Layla and Tomas for making the Electricity Roadshow so much fun.
We look forward to inviting the Roadshow back next year.
