The KLA Lab

Explore the diverse sciences that help us understand our planet.

Pupils will delve into Geology, examining various rock types—igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic—through hands-on study of rock and sand samples.

In the realm of Geography, they’ll learn to determine the age of trees and analyze seasonal changes by studying tree rings.

Additionally, they’ll investigate the pH scale and the water cycle, culminating in an exciting activity where they filter water using natural or renewable components.
