This week the Monday colony got cracking with part of the World challenge by visiting the Longford Park allotments and meeting some of the volunteers. They harvested potatoes, did some weeding and picked and tasted tomatoes.

The Wednesday colony carried out 3 experiments to gain their Experiment badge. They tested objects to see whether they float or sink and make foil boats, they built parachutes to protect hard boiled eggs and they made colourful patterns with skittles and hot water.
