EOTC Week







This week we are enjoying lots of activities outside the classroom!
On Tuesday we made our Ultra Violet light sensitive bead bracelets to wear during the week.
These opaque beads contain a chemical which changes colour when exposed to UV radiation. Take them away from the UV radiation and they change back to their opaque colour. These beads can change colour over and over again.
Inside the classroom they are pale.
Outside they react according to the intensity of the sunlight.
A good reminder to protect ourselves from the sun even on cloudy days!
