SCHOOL pupils in Garsington got to share exiting DIY science experiments with experts, parents and pupils from a neighbouring school as part of a national fair.

Youngsters at Garsington CofE Primary School hosted the Great Science Share Fair after school on Tuesday, inviting people in the community and pupils from Windale Primary School to come along and see what they had been up to in their lessons.

Answers to questions like ‘Do we need bees to survive?’ were presented in experiments by the children who joined in from every year group, including reception.

They worked on the answers to the questions alongside the science taught in their curriculum.

Experts from Science Oxford, the Royal Veterinary College and Oxford University’s science museum came along to the event as VIPs and gave pupils in the school an assembly before joining in with the afterschool antics.

More than 200 people came along to support the event after school to see what the kids, from age four to 11, had been up to.

The Great Science Share Fair sees schools from across the country get stuck into a campaign to share science with new audiences.
