Day 25 we participated in the Bath Festival of Nature


We braved the rain and enjoyed doing some fun scientific experiments at the Bath Festival of Nature.
We contributed to a science experiment, exploring how much alcohol fruit flies drink, and how it helps them fight disease.
 We explored bees and bugs under the microscope and with our magnifying glasses.
We entered the Jelly Worm competition, using research on how to create long biodegradable polymers which could replace plastics in the future.
We explored how water is purified using filters.
We learnt about all the bats that live in bath and what we can do to protect them. We even entered a competition to name a bat!

Basically really interesting and lots of fun activities. We're hoping they do it again next year and we get to see the parade next time.
