Experiment ideas
Make science fun! We have the best science experiments and activities for kids all year round. Plus, find tons of fun STEM challenges for little engineers.
Year 1 visits Year 2 - Science Week Experiments
As part of Science Week, class 1D came to class 2F to do some fantastic experiments! They investigated and observed what happens to M&M's when they are placed in a bowl of water.....!
Year 2 visits Year 1 - Science Week Experiments
As part of Science Week, class 2F came to class 1D to do some challenging experiments! They investigated on how to build the strongest and tallest tower using spaghetti and marshmallows (which we're very tempting to nibble on!)
Year 5's Air Resistance Experiments
Year 5 carried out an air resistance experiment based on our Science topic of Forces. We developed a question as a class of whether two parachutes of different surface areas would land at the same time if dropped from the same height. We used plastic bags, cellotape and strings to create our...

British Science Week 2020
The pupils and staff of Daubeney primary school drew the curtains to a close on an awesome British Science Week. Parents spent the afternoon in school educating and motivating pupils on a wide range of stem related jobs, from building their own animation into a film, taking fantastic photos when...
Scientist of the Week
One pupil stood out for his hard work and dedication and emerged as Daubeney's Scientist of the Week. He worked tirelessly, assisting the team in Daubeney's science gadget shop but also assisting the science lead in presenting jaw-dropping experiments to the rest of the school
Year 3 - Science
This week in science Year 3 have continued learning about light. We conducted 2 experiments to answer our learning question Can mirrors control light?
Year 1 - 1L Senses Experiments
In Year 1 this week we have been experimenting with what our senses can do. We tested what we could see, hear and feel, and then had lots of fun with things we could smell and taste!
Year 5: Science - Magnetism and Decanting
If you lost a bunch of paperclips in sand, how could you get it back? What if you spilt a bunch of oil onto your glass of water, how could you get that out? Today in science, we talked about two methods of separating materials: magnetism and decanting. We carried out 2 different experiments to test...
Year 2 - British Science Week 2024
Year 2 have enjoyed British science weeks by carrying out experiments, visiting a science exhibition and welcoming real life scientists to our school
Year 5 - British Science Week Workshop
We learnt about the states of matter through fun experiments during British Science Week! We had fun learning using dry ice! We even attempted to make our own ice cream!
Year 3 - Friction Detectives
Year 3 became friction detectives! We learned what friction is and discovered that it can be both helpful and tricky. To test it out, we built a ramp and covered it with different materials. Then we sent a toy car zooming down each surface, measured how far it travelled, and carefully recorded our...
