Year 3 British Science Week
Year 3 had great fun, testing out which magnet was the strongest by attaching paper clips. They planned and carried out a fair test investigation using a variety of magnets; big and small. The smallest horseshoe magnet held 61 large paper clips!!! They were surprised that the bigger magnet only…
Y5 British Science Week 2021
As part of their topic on forces Y5 carried out an investigation to see how difficult it was to pick up maltesers, jelly cubes and jelly cubes covered in oil with chop sticks. They realised that the maltesers and the oily jelly cubes were the most difficult as there was less friction between the…

Y6 Science Week
As part of National Science week, Year 6 have been learning about inventors and innovators. We had a great Science day making spaghetti skyscrapers and designing fabulous fliers. We learnt some really important lessons about the engineering of structures, how to make them strong and the…
Electrical Circuits
⚡️ ⚡️ Year 4 have been learning about electricity. ⚡️⚡️
They have learned all about how electricity is generated, including sustainable sources, and what is is used for. They have drawn diagrams to illustrate how to create an electrical circuit using symbols and scientific vocabulary. They have…
Y1 The Snail and The Whale
Year One has enjoyed lots of activities linked to Julia Donaldson’s The Snail and The Whale. They created story maps of the original story and then created their own versions. We worked hard to spot all the rhyming words and then chose our own rhyming words to go in our own stories. We created…
Y1 Sinking and Floating Investigation
Year 1 have enjoyed investigating floating and sinking at home. They selected various objects around the house to test. They predicted and then tested the different materials. Great home learning Year 1.
Year 4 ‘Investigating Static Electricity’
Year 4 enjoyed investigating how to create their own static electricity using balloons.
Y5 Science 22.10.20
Y5 carried out an experiment to see if they could separate a mixture of sand, salt and water. They used filtration and evaporation to see if they could separate the mixture back to its original form.
Whinlatter trip
As part of their Science topic on Living Things and their Habitats, Year 2 went to Whinlatter Forest Park to take part in a Habitats workshop. They learned about the trees and animals that live in the forest then went exploring to see what they could find. There was much excitement when they…
