Year one visited St. Mary’s lighthouse where we explored the rock-pools and caught many different sea creatures. We then learned about the history of the island and lighthouse.

In the afternoon session, we tested electrically-powered model cars to calculate the energy needed to drive the vehicle in a controlled, forward direction. This was followed by a short, but exciting, journey in the latest model of the Nissan Leaf eco-friendly car.
