It was lovely to join some @UnityBlackpool year 7s today using our new microscopes for the first time. Some really excited faces and everyone was so keen to show me their favourite π₯°
It's always nice to get the microscopes out to look at something other than onion cells. Our year 8s even started asking where they can buy their own microscopes ππ±#biology#plantsci#STEM#science
I love how the fire brings together even the most reluctant of the group! Building self confidence with difficult tasks and working on communication skills. Lots of smiles with burnt popcorn and toasted brioche. π±οΏ½οΏ½ #forestschool #thisisap @UnityBlackpool
