Team Hedgehogs had a wonderful time at the Think Tank, exploring all things SCIENCE. 

The children were able to explore the Science Garden, Wildlife and Marine Worlds, the Spitfire Gallery, All About Me and much more! They ended the day with an amazing chemistry show which was a enjoyed by…

This week, Team Daffodils have enjoyed exploring different parts of the school field. They've built houses out of the cut grass, worked as a team to move heavy objects and taken it in turns to push each other in the cars. We've also enjoyed an outdoor snack and tried some more summery…

In Science this week, we have been investigating forces, and have used our knowledge to create wind-powered pulley systems! We worked in small teams making windmills, attaching string, cups, straws and paperclips together to create an amazing pulley system. We were amazed to see the windmill…

Team Meadow have been learning about the life cycle of a plant. They recreated this life cycle using role play to represent the different stages. 

We welcomed the parents into our "in the garden" workshop. Where we planted seeds and explored the outdoor environment.
 

The children have been learning and understanding the process in which a caterpillar takes in order to become a butterfly. 
 

This week in our science in Team Badgers, we have been learning about the different parts of a plant and their function.  We learnt about the importance of each part and how it contributes to the healthy growth of the plant. We made posters to show our learning use real life plants!

In Science, Team Meadow have been using secondary sources to research diffferent animals. We then created fact files using the information we had collected. 

To celebrate STEM Day, Meadow were given a challenge to plan and create a bird nest! They're mission was to ensure that birds' eggs were to be kept safe and warm in a nest. They worked really hard together as a team to create the shape and then to fill it using the correct materials such as twigs,…

To celebrate STEM Day, Rabbits were given a challenge to plan and create a bird nest! They're mission was to ensure that birds' eggs were to be kept safe and warm in a nest. They worked really hard together as a team to create the shape and then to fill it using the correct materials such as…

We have had lots of fun making marble runs during our STEM day! We have been competing to make the slowest marble run. We have worked in teams to create some AMAZING marble runs and the children are very proud of themselves. Well done team Hedgehogs, you have…

We have had SO much fun during out STEM day this week! We have been competing to make the slowest marble run, using our science, maths, design and technology knowledge around textures, friction, angles and speed to help us. We have created some MASTERPIECES and have really impressed our teacher…
