Return to the Science Centre

Today I went with a class to the Science Centre where they will be doing a ten week science module. I haven't been there for a couple of years and they have updated it quite a bit. We used to be regulars there when the boys were younger and we had season tickets which were very well used. So it was really nice to be back and the pupils loved it. The staff there were really friendly and helpful. One of the highlights for me was that I got the chance to use a Theramin which is a wacky musical instrument that coincidentally I recently saw used at the Edinburgh Fringe by the New Rope String Band at the Spiegel tent. It was fun to use but the sounds I made were terrible! We also had great fun using the computer to alter our faces in a variety of ways, such as a chimp, or in Manga style, or in the style of Modigliani!
