Lunch time in the lovely park on a sunny day in June

Now we are in the teaching room at the center - it is called "Klogekassen" "Cleverbox"

Bodil shows us some funny experiments

How does the green water work?

...and what about the air?

Emma G. shakes the bottle

Emma P. shakes it  in another way.

Salt, water and oil - what happens?

Vinegar, baking soda and a ballon on top - what happens?

Girls at the entrance to the Blue Cube

Talking about  the Blue Cube and the glacial ice.

Bettina in the crevasse simulator.

Glacial ice in the crevasse

At the end of the crevasse we found a film screen, saw, heard and felt  how it would be if a glacier crashed near by.

Sometimes it was difficult to keep the balance

Lying down and watching a film about volcanic eruptions.

Notice the red crevice - we felt the heat and the sulfur smell, too.

A steam maschine which was able to lift 3 or 4 pupils

Asmus and Mikkel opened for the steam

Henrik tries, too.

Pupils' power for air-conditioning

Hydraulics power - air in the green one, and oil in the red.

Darkness in the thunder room...

Thank you for a very interesting day!
