Science Buskers Present:

The Science Weekly.

This Tuesday the Science Buskers club had our first full session of the year, and it kicked off with a bang (well, multiple bangs.). The new members were introduced to a variety of fascinating (but safe) science experiments run by the senior students. This included Oobleck, Making Natural indicators, Slime, Rainbow Fizz and more. This went well, with the list of casualties only containing: one beaker, two people with hands dyed blue, and one premature bursting of a hydrogen balloon. 

“Very entertaining” - Sienna Kidd

“My one went kind of good.” - Hunter Wilson

“It was OK.” - Ruby Phelon

“People enjoyed it” - Grace Mai

Overall, a fairly tame buskers session to kick off the year.
