We were delighted with our #Workshop on Microbe Magic by Eimear & Amy from @Pharmabiotic
Did you know that #Microbes are micro-organisms?
They are sometimes called ‘bugs’ because they can cause problems like disease but they are not all bad. Microbes include bacteria & viruses.

We learnt about our #DigestiveSystem Jack was first up to volunteer & Eimear from @Pharmabiotic measured how long his Digestive System was!
Don't ask HOW!
It was about 5 meters long & food takes up to 24 hours to go through.
We learnt about the #FoodPyramid & how we shouldn't feed the bad microbes with too much SUGAR. We tested 4 drinks for sugar using a Brix Meter. We were surprised by the results!
We also talked about our #ImmuneSystem the Importance of Washing our Hands & Coughing correctly ...into our elbows .. to reduce the spread of GERMS. We did a Fun experiment using Gel to see how far the "Germs" has travelled. Shocked by this!
