Year 6 have embarked on an exciting new topic about acids and alkalis. They conducted experiments with various colourless liquids, using a universal indicator to observe the fascinating colour changes in acidic solutions. This hands-on approach helped them understand the properties of acids and how they interact with different substances.

In addition to their experiments, the children researched hazard symbols to learn about safety in handling acids and alkalis. They also explored which common foods and drinks contain acids, making connections to everyday life. This comprehensive study not only enhanced their scientific knowledge but also raised their awareness of the importance of safety and the presence of acids in their daily diet.
