Yesterday Y5 students from Aston Hall Junior & Infant School visited Wickersley School & Sports College Science labs as part of Science Week.
They made some indicator from red cabbage and then used it to test the acidity and alkalinity of household substances.
They’ve also made some homemade indicator paper to use in their own school next week.
Well done to Aston Hall and Wickersley Sixth Form students!
For many years now, we’ve been hosting swimming lessons for students across the Trust and the borough at our swimming pool at Aston Lodge Primary School.
This year, we decided it was time to give the pool area some TLC with a full refurbishment.
As part of the Trust’s plans to decarbonise all of our premises, we got Novus Mechanical in to complete the following works:
We also had Pioneer Construction Services in to install:
As well as this, all internal walls have been over cladded with hygienic PVC and the toilets have been refurbished.
Freya Smith, Swimming Coach at WPT, said: “It’s been great to have the swimming pool back open with a fresh new look. Over the last few weeks we’ve already had many children from the Trust through its doors and we can’t wait to continue providing swimming and water safety lessons for our students.”
A big thank you to Novus Mechanical and Pioneer Construction Services for their work on this project.
