We had a superb visit to Magna this week!
A fabulous day at Magna

Y3/4 Science Week – Mr Chalk, Associate Nurse – Our Expert Visitor
Today, we carried on our learning from science week and enjoyed a special visit by Eli’s dad (a.k.a. Mr Chalk). Mr Chalk is an associate nurse and he shared not only a fascinating insight into his role but also lots of examples of how biology (and even maths!) helps him to look after the patients in his care. Of course, the children had lots of questions to ask but they were also fantastic at Mr Chalk’s ‘guess the broken bone’ quiz – well done boys and girls!
A big thank you to Eli from Class 10 for lending us his dad for the afternoon, and an even bigger thank you to Mr Chalk for his engaging and informative presentation!
Class 6 Science week
We had so much fun last week investigating all sorts of forces. We participated in lots of different experiments including air resistance, floating and sinking and gravity. We made parachutes and air powered rockets and tested out how much cargo our tin foil boats would carry. The children asked lots of ‘what if’ questions and we had held very scientific evaluations of the products we made.
I am very proud of you all Class 6!

Class 5 Science Week
On Friday afternoon we did our final Science Week activity. We learned all about floating and sinking. Our task was to design a boat that could float and carry cargo. All of our boats were able to float but the winning boats were Luther’s and Isabella’s which managed to carry more than 20 pieces of cargo! We have thoroughly enjoyed engaging in our Science Week activities and getting hands-on opportunities to be Scientists!
Class 5: Science Week
Class 5 learned all about the effects of gravity. We also loved finding out what happened to astronauts when there is no gravity. We watched a video all about how an astronaut washes her hair in space. It was so fun seeing all the water droplet floating away and the astronaut trying to catch them! We made straw rockets to test the effects of gravity. It was so much fun!
Y6 Sound
Y6 have taken part in a range of experiments linked to sound. We studied how we hear sound and what causes sound as part of our science week investigation. Well done Y6 it looks like you had a lot of fun! #OgdenTrust
Class 8: science experiment 4: floating and sinking
Yesterday class 8 enjoyed testing different objects to see which were the best at floating and which ones sunk. They predicted what would happen based on the material of the object.
They had lots of fun but it was also great to see them using their knowledge of materials from our Autumn term expedition!
Great work class 8!
Class 7 tests friction!
Today, Class 7 tested friction of different objects and also the friction of cars on different surfaces.

Class 7 Floating and Sinking!
Class 7 have completed an experiment where they tested what objects would float or sink!

Reception Science Week.
Louie has been a super scientist at home this weekend and has done an experiment with his grown ups. They were looking at different volcanoes and it was so much fun!
Well done Louie, I love that you have been continuing you learning at home.
Keep up the great work.
