An interesting contraption from Mrs and Mr Cammell! What do you think it will do?

Mr Cammell sent her husband down to R20 to show us a very interesting piece of technology. This invention not only peeled an apple - but cored it and sliced it - all at the same time! We were very impressed and had a slice of apple too. 

Why do you think people invent machines like this?

Teach the Teacher - Lockie teaches us fireworks art!

Lockie has taught us how to make crayon backgrounds and paint them over with black paint. Then we let them dry over the weekend and  we have scratched our designs into them with skinny sticks - now hey presto! Fireworks!

We had a great day at the Village - such great education and loads of fun!
