Today, we took our science lesson outside. After learning about how plants spread their seeds, we played seed dispersal game. We pretended to be squirrels preparing for winter. Each child got two raisins and two peanuts that represented acorns. The children were then asked to hide them as squirrels would do as a cache for winter when food is hard to come by. At the end, the children were challenged to retrieve their acorn cache for winter. Some of the squirrels didn't find any seeds as other squirrels took them. Some squirrels only managed to find one or two of the seeds they hid.

In gardening club today we dug up the overgrown raised beds. We found a giant spring onion, some small onions and some very odd shaped carrots! While we were digging we found lots of worms, a red beetle chrysalis and a very friendly snail! We are going to relocate the vegetable plot and hopefully grow some more fruit, vegetables and herbs this year. The children all worked extremely hard. Well done everyone!

Year 3 are investigating how water is transported within plants. We put celery sticks in water with food colouring to see how water travels up the stem. After an hour we noticed the celery stem changing colour and after a day even the leaves at the top turned red and blue.
During our SATs morning breakfast we found a shape that looked like a planet. Can you guess it? Yes - it is Saturn in our rice crispies! Made all year 6 laugh.
