Science gets fruity
Description
A physicist, a botanist and a musician visit St Saviour's and St Olave's School to bring the science of sound to life with a series of workshops combining science and engineering with music and physical theatre. The cross curricular day for the Year 7s begins with an exploration of the physics of sound through drama. Next up the students get the chance to make music with a range of unfamiliar percussion instruments. Following this they turn their attention to some plant science before finally they are set a challenge ... to make their own musical instruments out of fruit and veg!
