TechniQuest Visit

On Monday the 23^rd of January, TechniQuest came to visit year 5 and 6 of Fairfield. They talked to us about the body and the functions of the organs and muscles. There were some activities including optical illusions, microscopes, scent tests and mystery boxes. As groups, we peered into some nasty cuts through a microscope, matched bones to their joints, tested our sense of touch, smelt what was apparently pie, and got bamboozled over a five legged elephant! Now i Think we understand a lot more about the body! I said "When i looked into my cut, my group started gagging like there was no tomorrow!"
