Science, Year 2

As part of their new topic, ‘Make the Change’, Class 5 and 6 had a visit from South West Water to learn about how water is filtered prior to use within the home.

All of the children had the opportunity to carry out an experiment, which enabled them to identify all of the stages that dirty water needs to go through to make it safe for them to drink. They also became aware of the importance of ensuring that only toilet tissue is flushed down the toilet and not to waste water, whilst cleaning their teeth or taking a shower.
