Our children enjoyed a Year 6 Taster Day at Heanor Gate Spencer Academy on Wednesday 18th September. They experienced a range of lessons including maths, science (experimenting with how to make a rainbow in a test tube!), humanities, English (inventing and describing their own futuristic robots & products) and computing. There were smiles all around
