In Science, we carried out an experiment to see which…

Year 1 worked collaboratively to group and categorise animals into 5 groups based on their features. They were shocked to find out that humans are actually animals!

An exciting afternoon for Year 3 as they were joined in class by visitors from Create Education for a talk about 3D printing, while being filmed! They enjoyed exploring some 3D prints and then showing off their designs to the camera.
