The children were good at spotting red flag scenarios that they may come across online. The children enjoyed making fun chatterboxes with some questions to ask their friends about E-safety.

Circulatory System

, , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

In our science learning this week year 6 have been learning about the circulatory system. We started by role playing how the circulatory system works by pumping oxygenated blood to the body to every living cell through the arteries. The blood carries nutrients, oxygen and water. Once the oxygen has been distributed this now deoxygenated blood is pumped back to the heart through the veins. The heart then pumps this blood back to the lungs to receive more oxygen. This process is repeated again and again. The children were very good at acting this out.
