Martin gave the class a separating materials workshop. Pupils took part in various activities. Pupils were comparing different substances and seeing how they themselves could separate materials using centrifugal force. The class thoroughly enjoyed the activities, and I am proud of how well they all contributed to the workshop. ### Year 5 Urenco [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/year-5/IMG_7191.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/images/gallery/year-5/IMG_7191.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/year-5/IMG_7186.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/images/gallery/year-5/IMG_7186.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/year-5/IMG_7187.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/images/gallery/year-5/IMG_7187.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/year-5/IMG_7189.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/images/gallery/year-5/IMG_7189.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/year-5/IMG_7190.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/images/gallery/year-5/IMG_7190.jpeg) [Year 5](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/tag/year-5) [Science](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/tag/science) [Science](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/citag/science) [KS2](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/citag/ks2) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/100x100c/blog/IMG_0127%5B1%5D.JPG)](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/2025-10-10-15-03-00-maths-year-1) Previous ### [Maths Year 1](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/2025-10-10-15-03-00-maths-year-1) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/100x100c/blog/IMG_7318.jpeg)](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/2025-10-13-16-19-00-year-5-dt-building-doodlers) Next ### [Year 5 - DT - Building doodlers](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/2025-10-13-16-19-00-year-5-dt-building-doodlers) ### School Life - [Brookside Blog ](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog) - [News](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/news) - [Events](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/events) - [Photograph Galleries ](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/photo-galleries) - [School Council](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/school-life/school-council) - [After-School Clubs ](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/school-life/after-school-clubs) - [KIDZ Club](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/school-life/kidz-club) - [Calendar](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/calendar) - [Newsletters](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/information-for-parents/newsletters-2026-2027) - [Mental Health ](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/school-life/mental-health) ##### Location Rostherne Avenue Great Sutton Cheshire CH66 2EE ##### Contact Us 0151 558 1123 ##### Stay Connected - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/groups/brooksideprimary/) © Copyright 2014–2026 Brookside Primary School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
