Alongside, Mr. McEvoy, the children at the ES Science Club eagerly gathered around the experiment table, excited to see the results of their Coca-Cola and Mentos experiment.

As they dropped the Mentos into the bottle, the reaction was immediate—fizzy foam shot up in a geyser, drawing gasps and cheers.

Some took notes while others laughed, thrilled by the dramatic display of chemistry in action. It was a perfect mix of fun and learning, sparking their curiosity about the science behind the eruption and leaving them eager for more experiments.
