Static Electricity 🎈

21st Apr 2026

We had fun with balloons this week in science.

We learned that atoms are the building blocks of everything in the universe. They are made up of electrons and these electrons can jump from one thing to another leaving an item negatively charged.

We used balloons to investigate the effects of static electricity. Have a look at our photos.
