Year 5/6 Science Club
South Yorkshire Fire and Rescue “Kitchen Nightmares” Competition
The competition is the first part of our “Kitchen Nightmares” campaign that will be running throughout the autumn. Children aged between 6-12 are invited to take part.
Our advice to help you avoid a kitchen nightmare is:
- Keep electrical leads, cardboard and fabrics well away from the hob and keep ovens, hobs and grills clean from grease and crumbs
- Keep an eye on cooking at all times and never leave it unattended
- Switch off cooking appliances when you’ve finished cooking and gone to bed

Year 5 – Woodland Workshop 🌳🐿️
This afternoon we’ve enjoyed looking at the different woodland habitats and comparing them to what we saw at Tropical World!
Year 5 – Tropical World 🦋🐠
Year 5/6 Science Club – Friction
Over the last 3 weeks we have been investigating friction. We started by looking at how far toy cars moved on different surfaces. We looked for similarities and differences between the surfaces. We found that rough bumpy surfaces had more friction than smooth shiny ones. We used what we found to create our own surface to try and slow down a ball.
This week, we tested our surfaces to see which slowed the ball down quickest. We predicted which surface would be the best, created a results table and then found the average distance.
Year 5/6 Crew Champions and HoWL point winners!
