As part of
our topic “Water in Saudi Arabia”, Year 5’s had the privilege of having Mr and
Mrs Dickens explain and demonstrate the desalination process. They had an
enjoyable lesson in the science lab, watching how the Bunsen burner heated up
and evaporated salty water, while the Liebig Condenser, cooled and condensed
the water vapour to produce pure, drinkable water.
Many
children enjoyed the session so much that they have expressed an interest in
studying science when they get to secondary. Mr Dickens has expressed his
disappointment at having to wait almost two years to expect these budding
scientists in his class.
