Ontario Science Centre

The grade 5 and 6 students have been learning about flight in class. This was the perfect opportunity to go to the Ontario Science Centre and see the exhibit Leonardo da Vinci’s Workshop and the grades 3 and 4 went along. The students tried on wings, worked as a team to build a self-supporting bridge, created electricity by peddling, some of the students event touched the Van de Graaff Generator, and much more! All in all, the field trip was a great opportunity for some fun hands-on learning.
