Year 6 Visits The Centre for Life

This half term, Year 3 have been busy exploring rocks and soil in their science lessons. They looked closely at the different properties of rocks and carried out hands-on investigations to test the permeability of sand, chalk, and clay. Along the way, they learned how to set up a fair test and even planned and wrote their own scientific investigations. It’s been a fantastic opportunity to build enquiry skills and develop a deeper understanding of the world beneath our feet!

Today, Year 2 have been learning about the importance of trees and how by simply donating £1, we can help plant trees in other countries. To further celebrate trees, we created artwork using fallen leaves. First, we created amazing collage animals, then we created a class artwork inspired by the outdoor artist Andy Goldsworthy.

This morning, Year 2 had a fantastic time taking part in an NSPCC Speak Up Workshop. We learnt about our trusted adults at home and at school. We learnt that everyone has the right to feel safe, and who we can talk to if we have any worries or concerns. Finally we made Buddy puppets and explored the NSPCC Website. Now we all have the knowledge we need to stay safe. Speak out. Stay Safe.
