Wonderful Wonderdome Year 3
We learnt lots about Earth and Space in the Wonderdome. It was great fun. This made a great introduction to Science Week that is coming soon.
Nursery in the Wonder Dome
What a super time have had in the Wonderdome!
We travelled to space and got to learn all about the planets and stars in the solar system. We even got to see what it was like on the moon. We loved that we were surrounded by the stars and planets, it was like we were really in space!
We also…
Y6 visit the Wonder Dome
Y6 were absolutely thrilled to be treated to a session in the Wonder Dome - a mobile 3D planetarium. Once inside, they went on a journey to space and learned about how there could well be life on other planets. What an experience!
Y6 St Bees Science Fair
Year 6 were invited to St Bees private school to take part in a Science Fair. Throughout the meowing the children studied the structure of a cell using a microscope. They were shown how a Van Der Graff generator charges things up creating static electricity. In the labs, the children carried out…
Making shadows in Reception
In Reception the children made their own shadow puppet animals. They drew and cut the shapes out and we then made shadows by using a torch and projecting the shadows on to the board.
Year 3 Stone Age to Iron Age Day
We had a great end to our History topic, impressing Ro with our knowledge about the Stone, Bronze and Iron Ages. We enjoyed being a human timeline, making axes, engraving copper, hunter-gathering and fire starting like a nomad with flint knapping.
Investigating Materials Year 1
In our Materials topic we have been investigating whether materials are waterproof or not. We tested kitchen roll, tinfoil, fabric, plastic bags and tissue to see if they let water go through them. After testing all the materials we concluded that plastic bags and tinfoil are both waterproof. We…
Planets and rockets
In Reception we have started to learn about the topic of 'Space'. The children have been learning the names of the different planets and making them in the right colours with collage. We now know that Mars is the red planet and it is hot and Neptune is a cold planet and it is blue. The children…
Friction investigation fun.
We were investigating which surface allows our car to move furthest. The surface that caused greatest friction on the wheels was the grass. The shiny classroom floor allowed our car to move further. We were very keen to make sure that we did a fair test investigation.
Y6 Investigate Refraction and Reflective Materials
Year 6 completed their unit of learning on light by planning and carrying out an investigation to discover ‘What surfaces make the best reflectors?’. They set up an investigation that had a controlled variable, independent variable and dependent variable. They predicted and carried out the…
Reception visiting Pony pals
Reception were invited to go and visit Lexi's farm and meet some of her ponies and other animals. We started with a frosty walk and then got to meet some ponies and brush them. The children also fed some ducks and met the newest additions of the farm, some kittens. Thank you to Lexi's Mum for…
Wild Rivers 2022 pt1
Year 4 explored the river environment this morning. Each group was given a range of natural items to locate which they had to photograph. In their search, they had to use their knowledge of habitats and living organisms.
