We caught up with our Year 3 Science boffins this afternoon as they all got to grips with the magical world of magnetism.

The children conducted a number of experiments using their magnets of various strengths and sizes to discover what materials are magnetic and which are non-magnetic.

The children moved around the classroom and outside to see what materials they could find that would attract their magnets. We took some pictures of our budding scientists hard at work, which can be seen in the gallery below.
