A new dedicated science space has been unveiled at a Lowestoft-area primary school.
It comes as the South Lowestoft Partnership - which includes seven Active Learning Trust primary schools across Suffolk - joined the Phiz Lab family with the official opening of a dedicated science space at Red Oak Primary School.
The new science hub was unveiled at the primary school on Southwell Road, Kirkley in Lowestoft with science ambassadors from Red Oak, Pakefield and Reydon primary schools enjoying an afternoon of activities.
A school spokesman said: "The new Phiz Lab will allow children to experience science in an awe-inspiring way, raising aspirations in STEM subjects and making it accessible to all learners.
"The lab will be open to other Active Learning Trust schools, as well as offering different opportunities for community involvement including STEM clubs and twilight sessions."
