Class 9 | Anne Frank Visit

Over the long weekend, George was lucky enough to go on a visit to Amsterdam. Whilst he was there, he made a visit to the house of Anne Frank, someone we had been learning about way back in the autumn term! What a fabulous experience!

Class 9 | Shadows!

This week, we have been investigating how distance can affect the size of a shadow. We measured the length of the shadow as the light source moved further away before plotting it onto a bar chart.

Year 3 – Tennis

Year 3 are learning all about tennis in their PE lessons this half term. Today, there were lots of concentrated faces as we practised balancing the ball on our rackets and keeping things under control with some keepy-uppies! Well done, everyone 🙂

Class 9 | Light Experiment

We kicked science week off with an experiment to prove that light travels in straight lines. We used three pieces of card and made a hole in each before shining a torch through the hole. We knew that light must travel in straight lines because we could only see the light when all three holes lined up perfectly.

To prove this further, we then moved the middle card and tried to shine the torch through it again. We could no longer see the light from the torch as the light was unable to bend around the middle card.

Green Top Science Week

Keep a look out on the blog this week for what we will be getting up to in our science weeks. We are planning to inspire the children with scientific experiments and visitors with scientific professions! We are very excited to see what the children know already and what they learn!
