Year 5 explored sun safety today. They were able to explore different SPFs and predict which bead would turn purple the quickest.
They were able to see the effects of the sun and think about how they can stay safe.
Everyone was shocked how quickly the bead without any sun protection turned purple and how the factor 50 sun cream kept the other bead from turning purple at all!

It was lots of fun and some children even challenged themselves to see whether the type of bread made a difference!
