Year 5 really enjoyed science day yesterday. They were on a journey to Antarctica trying to help Jason decide which type of material was the best to use for keeping the heat in when out in the cold.

As you can see, we were really enjoying finding which one was the best.

Year 2 - Science Day

What a fantastic day! We have become scientists for the day and have explored our big question. Our year group question was, “What solution do you need to make the best bubbles?” We thoroughly enjoyed looking at the different ingredients and exploring why some of them created bubbles but others didn’t. We know that the key ingredient was washing up liquid. Thank you to all the parents and carers that bought in the resources we needed. We really appreciate your support and co-operation emnabling us to carry out these exciting activities. We hope you enjoy watching our video and viewing our different photographs.

Year 3 Online Safety - We are aware of our digital footprint!

The children in year three have been learning what is meant by a ‘digital footprint’ and how data about their internet activity is collected passively without them actively authorising this and how this compares with their active digital footprint. 
They have discussed how everything shared on the internet can be found, shared, broadcast and copied and that it lasts forever. Please discuss this with your child and support them in keeping a diary of their family digital footprint at home.

2A - Measuring

In Year 2, we have been learning about length and height and have enjoyed measuring different objects around the school. We can convert our own heights from centimetres to metres. This is something we found very tricky but we know that 100cm is equal to 1m.
