Y2 - Science/PSHE workshop
Year 2 have been finding out about the importance of good and bad gases. They met a little bear called Safety Seymour who told them how to recognise carbon monoxide around the home.
Year 5 and the CO Crew
This morning Year 5 had a visit from the CO Crew. We learnt all about the dangers of Carbon Monoxide along with what to do in certain situations when the dangerous gas is present.
Well done Year 5! Fantastic work!
Year 4 STEM-tastic Morning!
What a brilliant buzz in Year 4 this morning! We were lucky enough to take part in a hands-on STEM workshop run by the Engineering Development Trust (EDT) – and what a challenge it was!
Armed with just straws and a single metre of sticky tape, the children set about building the strongest…
Year 5's Eye tests
Our Year 5 scientists have been exploring a fascinating aspect of human development in their recent lessons: how our bodies change as we grow older! This week, they put their own vision to the test. Armed with eye charts, they carefully measured how their eyesight performed at different distances.…
What You Should Know About H₂O
Today, we were all treated to a brilliant assembly called "What You Should Know About H₂O", kindly funded by United Utilities.
The children discovered the three states of water—solid, liquid and gas—and had a chance to see how water changes and moves through the world around us. We dived into…
Y2 - Science (Living things and their habitats)
Year 2 have been observers and investigators this afternoon in the Wildlife area. They have found a number of different mini beasts and recorded their findings in a survey using tally strikes.
Knowledge: identify and name a variety of plants and animals in their habitats, including…
Let the be light ... or shadows
Year 3 have been finding out that light cannot travel through an object and this is how shadows are created.
Year 5 and the phases of the Moon
In a lively Year 5 classroom, students eagerly used Oreos to model the phases of the moon. By scraping off the cream to mimic waxing and waning crescents, they transformed a simple snack into a hands-on astronomy lesson. It was an engaging and delicious way to explore the lunar cycle!
Scaling the Solar System: Year 5’s Playdough Planet Challenge!
Year 5 had a fun, hands-on lesson using playdough and fractions to compare planet sizes! They scaled each planet accurately, seeing how tiny Mercury is next to giant Jupiter. This creative activity brought maths and space learning to life—well done, Year 5!
