STEM Learning: Doctors and Nurses
12th Sep 2025
Today, the children in Ash Class explored the importance of doctors and nurses, gaining a deeper understanding about the People who Help Us, for their topic. In class, the children learned all about germs and the crucial role of hand washing in keeping illnesses at bay. To make these lessons engaging and insightful, we conducted a fun STEM experiment that captivated their curiosity. Using simple ingredients like pepper to mimic germs, the children were amazed to see how the ‘germs’ spread away when they introduced soap - demonstrating its power in maintaining cleanliness and health.
