TRYING to create balloon-powered vehicles was one challenge facing Foster's Primary School children in Welling during its Science Week.
The children read science-based pieces during their literacy hour, did full science investigations and took part in workshops.
Other activities included focusing on animal habitats and looking for effective ways of recycling. Parents were "digging for Fosters" by creating a sensory garden for the school. They were also invited into the school to try their hand at some of the children's experiments.
The highlight of the week was the great egg race in which children including Janine Bennett raced home-made vehicles powered by balloons.
