Science Display At Nayland College

Space probes, rockets, hovercraft and two-way radios, all part and parcel of the modern age in which we live, were displayed in this year's science exhibition by pupils of Nayland College earlier this month. As well, rock samples, tumble-polished stones, birds eggs and fernery were displayed by pupils.
