Once again the Science Department at Liskeard School and Community College have embraced National Science and Engineering Week in spectacular style with their annual Science Show. Mr Trudgett and Mr Inger presented a two hour long show which was dynamic and interesting and featured lots of new experiments such as the rainbow flames and elephant’s toothpaste alongside some of our regular favourites.

The pair started on the theme of Energy by demonstrating the effects of cooling using liquid Nitrogen. Several lucky audience members were able to try a cryogenically frozen wotsit or some ice-cream made with liquid Nitrogen.
